I have one question for Dr. Kelly before I bring in Senator Landy. Based on the current variables with regard to appeals coming in and the number of staff, Dr. Kelly is telling us that the difficulty in freeing up that bottleneck lies in the staffing of the board, that there is a bottleneck as opposed to a backlog and that if the board has its optimum number of meetings over the next 12 months, it would be able to hit its optimum figure of around 90%.
