Kieran O'Donnell: So the HSE is waiting. The public in Limerick and the mid-west look at one key statistic, which we all do and that is the trolley count. The HSE may disagree with the INMO figures but that is what we follow. When I perused the INMO figures, I discovered that since 22 June the figures have improved although not initially.

Kieran O'Donnell: Can Professor Cowan or Professor Lenehan tell me what the HSE has requested for the winter plan? The figures show that the UHL trolley count is growing and is higher than last year.

Kieran O'Donnell: The PMIU team are the experts. If the PMIU goes in and says everything is being done, then I expect whatever winter plan submitted by UHL would be funded. There must be a reason that UHL's numbers are so high all of the time. Even with the PMIU on site, the trolley counts are still high, which fundamentally tells me that there is a problem with resources whatever way one wants to look at...
