I would rather have the Tusla and HSE representatives in on 8 February than the GSOC representatives. We have far more to lose by letting the issues I mentioned continue and fester. We need to know how the parent support elements of the Sláintecare plan are being rolled out. There are 19 healthy community programmes and we do not know at this stage what funding there will be for them. I have received no answers to the parliamentary questions I submitted in November. There are issues with parliamentary questions not being answered. However, I am subject to the decision of other members on this matter. My view is that we have a lot more to lose by not ascertaining where that €1 billion fund is being spent.
