How can we have an innovative, forward-thinking health service if just a quarter of what is requested is given? The Department would obviously be asked for a justification. I am just trying to get at how this all adds up or works. It does not add up to me. We are constantly talking about how we have Sláintecare and new innovations in health and then funding for new measures in the health budget is a quarter of what was deemed to be necessary for 2024.
