I thank our guests for the comprehensive opening statements and information they have given us. This is a very good session. I commend Senator Conway on pushing us to hold this session and invite our guests to appear as witnesses. What struck me about the statements is that they point out challenges but are full of solutions. The latter is important for us because it makes our job easier.
I will focus on integration. Before I do, I have a question for Mr. Mullaniff about eye clinic liaison officers, ECLOs. Who employs them? Are they employed through the NCBI or are they directly employed by the HSE?
