Dr. Tony Holohan:

If I have understood Senator Mullen's question correctly, when it comes to the factors that explain a different rate of different experiences in different countries, irrespective of what those experiences are, the relevant role of different factors can vary. I would like to think that one of the reasons why we are making progress is that we have improved the quality of education and training and the understanding of the access that people have to a variety of services that they did not have 20 years ago. These make a positive contribution.
