Mr. James Menton:
I appreciate that. That is absolutely understood and respected. One of the suggestions made by my colleague in his opening statement related to a public interest committee. I think that is a vehicle for addressing some of the observations that have been made by the Deputy with regard to broader representation of interest groups. At the end of the day, we are involved in the provision of health care services. We have a very complex and constructive conversation and contract with the HSE. In return for the grant moneys we receive from the taxpayer, we provide substantial health care services to citizens.
