There are certain areas where there has been a larger take-up. One of the positives is the higher uptake with regard to anaesthetists and diagnostics. There are positives coming out of some of the changes. The IMO has spoken about the non-take-up of the contract and that the UHL group has the lowest level. This can be explained by all of the challenges they face there. The group with the highest take-up is the RCSI group, which includes Beaumont Hospital, Cavan, Connolly Hospital, Louth County Hospital, Monaghan General Hospital, Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital, Drogheda and the Rotunda Hospital. Is there a specific reason this hospital group has a higher take-up than some of the others?
