I understand the anxiety about this and the need to expedite progress, and I will do so to the best of my ability. I will encourage HETAC, through my colleague at the Department of Education and Skills, to get on with it in a much more aggressive fashion than perhaps has been the case heretofore. I cannot walk the Government, the committee and myself into a legal mess to the detriment of patients and have everything set back.
