I am aware that it is not part of our remit, regrettably. The issue of capacity was raised by the Medical Council. What is the waiting time for a pregnant person to see a perinatal psychiatrist in the country at the moment? It is important to clarify that. I thank the Chairman for bearing with me. Has the Medical Council received any complaints from medical practitioners with respect to the guidelines as they currently exist? Has there been a request from the Medical Council to any Government since 1992 to have the guidelines legislated for?
