Hillery: co-location plans ‘open to abuse’
Dr John Hillery said the debate over the controversial co-location proposal had got bogged down in ideological disputes about public versus privately-owned health services when the real issue was how services were used.
He said medical needs, not the public or private status of patients, must determine their access to such services. “Having a debate about ownership is missing the point. What matters is regulation,” he said.
