I have two more brief questions. In cases where a diagnosis has been made, do we have figures for how many people contracted hepatitis C outside the State? I am talking about the immigrant population who may be seeking asylum here or in direct provision who we know have hepatitis C. Do we look at that to try to identify potential risk groups?
