Yes. I understand, from the information that I have been told, that the vast majority of that budget involves the transfer of files rather than individuals. If somebody moves from one service to another or from one unit to another unit, the file is not given to the patient but is transported separately, and we use a taxi service to transfer the files. Is that correct?
