Can I ask a question on that, Chairman? Mr. Woods talks about the appointment of strong clinical leadership. Where all the clinicians in a particular facility agree there should be an independent review, however, someone in administration - who has neither hand, act nor part in the facility - can overrule their decision and 18 months later no review report has been completed. If that is the structure Mr. Woods is talking about, it is not going to work.
