Special Report No. 83 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Managing Elective Day Surgery
12:00 pm
Mr. Seamus McCarthy:
At the time we decided to compile the report, these were the procedures that were being targeted. Deputy Nolan inquired earlier as to why we are not monitoring the data for the period after 2012. In fact, the monitoring is ongoing but the position with regard to target setting has changed. There are now targets for more procedures than the 24 listed, which was one of the recommendations we made.
