The Government is committed to moving the focus of health care from secondary care to primary care, key aspects of which include the continued development of Primary Care Teams and Primary Care Centres. Up to 95% of people's health and social service needs can be properly met within a primary care setting. The HSE has responsibility for the provision of Primary Care Centres, therefore, this matter has been referred to the HSE for attention and direct reply to the Deputy.
