Agreed. It is the HSE's responsibility to do so. We can put forward suggestions but, at the end of the day, the HSE has the clinical expertise and at least in theory, the management expertise. It is the HSE's responsibility to collate and co-ordinate that and delivery it for parents. The likes of the Minister of State and I try to come up with practical suggestions with no clinical or health management experience. All we can do is hold the HSE to account, but it has to happen.
