Mental Health Services - Financial Statements 2020

Mr. Stephen Mulvany:

We expect that the first roll-out of the IFMS, which will be to the entire eastern area, including PCRS, covering about 40% of our expenditure, will happen next year. We expect that by the end of 2025, we will have rolled it out to about 80% of the entire public healthcare expenditure, including the larger voluntary bodies, and to more than 90% by end of the following year. We have lost time due to Covid and the cyberattack and, as we have explained previously, we have had to replace our statutory instrument, SI.
