We can certainly facilitate a debate or statements on the report. The entire report has been referred to the health committee. Obviously, I anticipate that the health committee will focus on the legislative options or recommendations but there are also a number of operational recommendations. The Government has agreed that the HSE will establish an implementation group to progress those particular recommendations. The proposals around legislative change are then being referred to the Joint Committee on Health. It will be a matter for this committee to progress and to come forward with its report. At that stage, Government will examine that and take decisions in respect of this report.
