I propose to take Questions Nos. 93 and 168 together.

I have been informed by HIQA that the reports the Deputy refers to are currently out with providers for factual accuracy checking. Once this process is complete the reports will be sent to the Board and to the Minister for Health and Children and the final reports will be published online by the Authority.
