Will the Minister outline the Government's policy on health? Is it still talking about disbanding the HSE? Is it talking about establishing hospital trusts? While we criticise the HSE, we, and everybody else, are unsure as to the Government's stated policy on the HSE, whether it is to be reformed or abolished, and how we underpin our health services. While we criticise management, there is an obligation on the Minister to outline the strategy clearly. Will the Minister wait for the ten-year plan or what is his view? We do not know, and everybody in the HSE does not know.
