Yes, I am coming to my question, which is sincere. There then was a statement that safety concerns existed but it now emerges that HIQA did not make any safety report concerning accident and emergency services in Roscommon hospital. Moreover, one now is told that another report is extant. It would be worthwhile were the Taoiseach and the Minister for Health to make clear the basis for the decision. I make this point as someone who is willing to support hard decisions even when they affect local communities because hard decisions are now inevitable. However, it is extremely important that the Government be seen to be responsible in the manner in which it manages its communications.
