Text

Minister, you spoke a few weeks ago about pausing not the overall reconfiguration but the hospital network system. You just mentioned the committees in common across all the trusts, but our waiting lists will not get better in the long term if we do not change and deliver healthcare in a more sustainable way. Given that you said that you are parking that initiative, where do we go from here in which hospitals deliver what services and what is the best for everyone in Northern Ireland? That is how it has to be looked at on the whole.
