Special Committee on Covid-19 Response: Non-Covid Healthcare Disruption: Waiting Lists and Screening (Resumed) (17 Jul 2020)

David Cullinane: It would be great if Mr. Woods could provide that figure. I want to move to screening because this morning the representatives from the Irish Cancer Society were concerned more than critical about the screening services and wanting them to be back up and running.

Special Committee on Covid-19 Response: Non-Covid Healthcare Disruption: Waiting Lists and Screening (Resumed) (17 Jul 2020)

David Cullinane: I want to put the final question to Mr. Woods. It is regarding capital funding. A reply to a parliamentary question on cardiac care in the south east, and this is only one project, so it will now involve every project, states that a capital plan is being reviewed and revised to take account of the impact of Covid-19. Are we now saying that every capital project is being reviewed, that even...
