Mr. Sean Egan:

We have been engaging with both the hospital and the hospital group and the HSE on this issue. It is one of our key priorities in terms of engagement at every level in the HSE because it is a serious patient issue. From our perspective, there has been no frustration in the engagement. Any information we have sought has been provided to us. We have also been provided with comprehensive plans. We can see a degree of movement on a number of the issues that are moveable in the short term, particularly around staffing levels, which is important from a safety perspective. Equally, there have been changes to the way they do their business. Those changes, by the HSE's own admission, are all a work in progress but, at the same time, one of the key issues here is capacity. There has been movement in building that additional capacity. We expect the first tranche of that to arrive in the next 18 months.
