Ms Paula Kelly:

It is my understanding that 179 children were seen in those clinics. These were children who were already long waiters, as Ms Nugent said. They had waited an average of 19 months prior to that, ranging from 12 to 35 months. These children were seen at the weekend. They were then brought in for treatment. Fifty-one of those 179 were deemed to need ongoing treatment. Those 51 children were scheduled for that treatment, all of which was completed over four months. That is an appropriate time for that treatment from the time they were seen.
