Graduate medicine absolutely but the focus is on rural medicine which is really innovative. I have seen the challenge in meeting the provision of rural GPs myself. The two courses in Galway, namely, pharmacy and graduate medicine with a focus on rural medicine, are very welcome. Also there will be 35 places in dentistry. I visited the RCSI recently and saw first-hand the new equipment and facilities that are being provided. Those are being entered into the system as soon as possible and will also provide public as well as private services. That is badly needed.
