John Moloney (Laois-Offaly, Fianna Fail)

The position is clear. Last year we did not have the money but now we are committing the money. We are working with the commission to develop interim measures. I have four specific ideas in mind. I do not intend sharing them with the House at present because it is clear that by doing so I would give rise to concerns about the transfer of patients. I am not looking at the easy option of extending the time period but investigating how adequate and proper facilities can be provided.
