Last year was the first year of the implementation of the health strategy. In reviewing its progress to date, I am happy to be able to record significant progress on a number of fronts, including the development of capacity, developments in primary care, legislative developments, the restructuring agenda and so on. At the end of last year, up to 70% of all the actions detailed in the strategy had commenced. We also set out in 2002 to make a tangible difference to the experience of individuals in their interactions with the health system.
