Health Services: Motion.
I welcome the conference in Galway over the next two days into the primary care strategy. Mr. Michael Kelly, the Secretary General of the Department of Health and Children, gave a very strong commitment on the primary care strategy stating, "It's the only show in town." The Government is positively committed to the primary care strategy and believes it must be rooted in the community. We must find out what the people want. They will not buy into change unless they are part of it. This can be achieved if we can bring the profession and the local community on board.
