I want to ask about and discuss some of the more systemic, run-of-the-mill failures highlighted by the report. I worked in front-line addiction services which were funded through the HSE and through the local drug and alcohol task forces, and I remember doing my reports. Our reports had to be up-to-date in respect of care plans, files and so on. Basically, we were scrutinised by the HSE and our funding could have been stopped at that stage.

In respect of Lucena Clinic Services, what is that service provider doing right and what can the HSE learn from that service in terms of what is not being done in the other four CHO areas?
