I support Senator White's view on a meaningful role for the democratically elected local public representatives. As she and other Members are aware, I have been most involved in the structures of the health boards and health authority. I fully acknowledge the vital, important and meaningful role of the democratically elected public representative. With the Minister, Deputy Martin, I am happy to work with the Association of Health Boards in Ireland which represents all the elected members on this issue. I understand the Minister has already arranged a meeting which will take place shortly with the chairman of the association, Mr. Jack Bourke and the secretary Mr. Matt O'Connor. I keep in contact with the association and have advised it that my door is open at all times to work out the detail of its input. I would be happy to hear from Senator White if she requires any further assistance or information. If she thinks there is anybody else I should meet, I will endeavour to do so.
