Ms Anne Coyle:

It is a matter of monitoring those. We are seeing more patients through our inpatient activity, our day-case activity and our outpatient activity in 2025 compared with 2023. We have three centralised waiting lists, the productivity initiatives we are doing in our theatre, our theatre utilisation, maximising the use of outpatients, as I have said, and we are working in collaboration with other hospitals as part of the network within the Dublin north-east region. We work with the Rotunda on some of those waits and we work, for example, in the management of our dermatology clinics, with other hospitals within the Dublin north-east region. Really, it is in all our best interest to deliver improved access for our patients and maximise the resources we have to hand, our theatres, our outpatients and so on. That is the work we have been really turning our attention to.
