Let me finish. The answer I have been given is that the Department is speculating. We are discussing the implications of Brexit. The first action that should be taken is an analysis of the extent to which the cross-border directive, which may not survive Brexit, is contributing to the HSE's work. When will Mr. Goodman have data on the extent to which the rest of the NHS is picking up the slack here? I understand that 90% of the inpatient treatments were performed in the North.
