I thank the Minister for his attendance. The HIQA review is a significant announcement. It paves a positive pathway in terms of what has overall been a very negative outcome for a region. At the end of my contribution, I would like to hear from the Chairman or the committee clerk where the mid-west hospital action group are because it is its petition that has convened us here today. I think it would be essential that it would be here today and if it was not available, perhaps this should have been deferred to a time when it was.
