With all due respect, Dr. O'Connell is reading out what he has given me in writing. I want to know what is happening to ensure we address the issue. I want him to address the fact that the limited service we currently have will be closed for two afternoons per week for the rest of the summer and all day on 13 August for maintenance during service time. If it only operates on a 9-to-5 basis, why cannot the maintenance be carried out after 5 p.m.? Why does a critical service for a substantial population in the south east have to close during working hours for routine maintenance? I would like Dr. O'Connell to answer that.
