The challenges that face the HSE in respect of those days are considerable when one looks at it in the stark light of each individual hospital. An explanation needs to be given as to why some hospitals have dramatically reduced the number of days while others seem to have ignored the agreement in place because the numbers have shot back up again. We need to understand these figures clearly if we are to have a proper understanding of it and assist in terms of the analysis of the state of the HSE on this issue. Deputy Harris has asked for a copy of the document and perhaps the clerk can arrange with Mr. McDonald to copy it and circulate it to members.
