This is really important, and I know Mr. Tierney is coming on 3 December to talk about digitalisation, which the Minister is very committed to. I have been attending the Department of Health, HSE and health boards before that for 25 years. We are an unmitigated disaster in terms of digitalisation of our health service. It is my impression that we can only throw so much money at a structure and an organisation that is not fit for purpose and in this modern era, not having our health services digitalised means we can throw as much money as we like at it, but we will not achieve the productivity we require. What does the Minister think about that?
