Mr. David Moloney:
As I mentioned earlier, we are publishing a public service performance report that has a number of key activity indicators so that we can see whether activity levels have gone up or down in important areas such as acute hospitals, primary care, health and well-being and mental health services. We shine a light on those areas and publish data relating to them. The Deputy is right that it is primarily a matter for the Department of Health and its Accounting Officer.
