That would be helpful, even if it was a recommitment to the aims set out. A question in that regard was asked by the Chairman. There are people in counties Donegal and Derry and further afield who could be affected. There is no doubt that the services provided in Altnagelvin hospital are first class. I appreciate that there is a resource element involved. but there would be merit in contacting patients, even to let them know what Mr. O'Connor had told us. I fully understand the position is fluid, but patients are enduring enough trauma and concern about the potential detrimental impact on their health without having further uncertainty or worry placed on them. There would be merit in taking such an approach and perhaps it is something the committee might explore down the line.
