As a former member of the committee but a gatecrasher, I thank the Chairman and the members for allowing me speak. It is mainly in the next session where I would like to ask questions but I will make a couple of points.

Dr. Lambert trained in Michigan and was involved in Rochester in New York. He was an assistant professor at Johns Hopkins and then went to St. Mary's and Kings College Hospital in the UK, and now he is in the Mater. As an infectious disease consultant, is Dr. Lambert seen as in any way underqualified or a black sheep within the health system in Ireland?
