Not if there is a change of Government.

I will ask about the integrated health areas mentioned in the report, Organisational Reform - HSE Health Regions. This is an interesting one because I have been asking about this for some time. We will have the health regions, CEOs, and a single tier of management at that senior level. That makes sense. At a local level at the moment, we have a hospital manager and a chief officer for community services. If we want to follow the logic of Sláintecare and of the regional health areas, we need to end the silos and single tiers of management. How many of these integrated health areas are envisaged?
