I wish to clarify a point. Ms Bond spoke about regulation assisting matters. We heard from the Health Information and Quality Authority two weeks ago that, essentially, the area was unregulated, whereas, if I understood Ms Bond correctly, there is a degree of regulation. To what extent is the area regulated? What exactly is the shortfall to which HIQA was referring? I want to understand the position better.
