Pat Rabbitte (Dublin South West, Labour)

On the question of PPPs, it was an element of the health strategy that the Government would provide 800 community nursing beds under a PPP. What happened to that commitment, why was it abandoned, has it been abandoned or is it still on course?

Is the committee project focused, does it have a role in monitoring the national development plan, or is its approach simply that, for example, metro west is on the agenda today and how can it move forward? Is there any overall oversight of the implementation of the NDP?
