- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: HSE National Service Plan 2022: Discussion (18 May 2022)

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: HSE National Service Plan 2022: Discussion (18 May 2022)
John Lahart: The two words that have dominated the news in recent days are "clinical appropriateness". This is with regard to the national maternity hospital, which was signed off yesterday. There is still a little hangover of an issue on it. The CEO of the HSE is answerable to the board. The board of HSE overwhelmingly approved the new national maternity hospital project. Was Mr. Reid at any of the...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: HSE National Service Plan 2022: Discussion (18 May 2022)
John Lahart: This is very useful. The committee has had pretty comprehensive discussions under the stewardship of the Chair.

The Minister stated that the number might get up to 14 this...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: HSE National Service Plan 2022: Discussion (18 May 2022)
John Lahart: I want to go back to the issue of clinical appropriateness and to summarise my understanding in this regard. It is about ensuring that if pressure comes from other areas of speciality within a general hospital, such as cancer care or cardiac care, or there is potential overcrowding in the emergency department, and if there are free beds in maternity, those beds simply cannot be encroached on...
