That is what we are trying to get at because it seems to me that regarding the solution and the service that could have been provided here, investment was not made in it. It was run to an extent that there would be no alternative, which happens so many times, so it would be outsourced to America. I know I am very limited in time. When I had my smear, why did somebody not tell me there is a 30% chance that this is not going to work or I will not get the correct information? There is a 30% chance so this is what I need to do, that was not communicated to me or to other women.
