Mr. Gerry Liston:

It is important to stress the legislative context here. At present, the situation in Bahrain is being approved by the operation of Irish law. As Dr. Ó Cuinn stressed, until the Medical Council goes out and conducts a process of accreditation in Bahrain, section 88(6) of the Medical Practitioners Act 2007 deems the situation to be approved. That adds to the urgency. Irish law is approving the situation in Bahrain at present and that heightens the urgency. The Medical Council must go there and conduct its process of accreditation.
