Michael McGrath (FF), Cork South-Central

I thank Deputy Flaherty. I am familiar with the excellent work the staff in St. Christopher's do on an ongoing basis. I thank him for advocating for them in the House this afternoon. There are ongoing meetings between the HSE and St. Christopher's. As he has acknowledged, the HSE has assisted St. Christopher's in dealing with financial challenges through a cash acceleration process and work is continuing between the HSE and St. Christopher's to make sure there is a sustainable basis for the continued provision of services for the people of the region. We have to arrive at a point where St. Christopher's is on a sustainable funding basis. That may well involve enhancements to governance and oversight processes, which I am sure the service is open to. If I can be of any assistance, I ask the Deputy to reach out.
