That is correct. There is a very clear direction of travel in that regard.

The Deputy is also correct on the issue of a troubleshooter. As I indicated, we have just hired a new deputy director general in charge of operations who brings with him vast experience from the Scottish health system. The Scottish national health system is often held up by political parties in the House as a destination that we would like to reach. As the chief of operations, the deputy director general will bring a fresh pair of eyes and new approach to a number of issues. I hope also that he will embed some of his knowledge across the system. Perhaps the Deputy will repeat his final question.
