Ms Kiely mentioned sensitive data. Even if the hub is established perfectly and working in real time, it is worth noting that there have recently been data breaches within the HSE related to the termination of pregnancies. We were warned that that would probably happen; I just want to flag that there are people who are very fond of accessing everybody's information. If information in the hub was to get into the wrong hands, it would obviously be a very serious matter.
