Before I go into the substance of this session on hospital overcrowding, I have questions on two other matters for the Minister.

Last week, when the Minister was in, we talked about the report from Dr. Maura Quinn. Can he again confirm that the Government has accepted all of the recommendations in that report, and that they will be implemented, and , more importantly, that every civil servant, including senior civil servants in his Department, will implement the recommendations of that report, once the Government does so? Can the Minister give that assurance to members of this committee?
