I thank the witness for clarifying that. I also asked about a waiting list. The organisation in March 2014 was described as a shambles. We are now in 2017 by the witnesses' own admission, there is an eight-month waiting list. Survivors say the list is longer but I will use the witnesses' figure of eight months. The length of the waiting list has not been addressed, notwithstanding that Caranua has its full complement of staff and that the number of survivors coming forward for the first time is at an all-time low. I do not think the Chairman wants me to interact with the witness. I would love to interact.
