We are doing that through the postgraduate training programme. What we are looking at here and what the Deputies were alluding to are specialist grades of nurses. If a paediatric intensive care unit nurse decides to leave the service, we cannot just replace them with a graduate nurse. We have to get a nurse who is trained in that area.
