Could Dr. O'Donnell clarify the issue of hand-over of patients? Can we do something about expediting the hand-over of patients from the ambulance service to hospital staff? Has that been examined? Have units been identified where there are far higher delays in the taking over of patients from the ambulance staff, varying from one accident and emergency department to another?
