That sounds really good. It is important to track whether it is especially bad in certain areas, where that is and what is happening. It is great the HSE will be tracking it and that security has been increased.
Out-of-hours GP services are an important way for people to receive urgent care without having to go to emergency departments. They relieve the pressure on the hospital system. However, there are major shortages in this area. Forgive me if this was already covered. Will the Minister say a little about what is being done to support GPs in their work?
