Text
Minister, I appreciate that you cannot just pull an experienced consultant out of a hat. If a temporary contingency were to, unfortunately, become unavoidable, will you ensure that the arrangements are regularly reviewed, recruitment continues and an expectation is maintained that maternity care, including birth services, will be urgently restored at Daisy Hill Hospital? Can you confirm that, across all aspects of healthcare, your number-one priority is patient safety?
