Okay. I concur with that. I would like to look at the structure that was set up. We had the National Paediatric Hospital Development Board. Then we had two separate steering groups, one of which was the children's hospital project and programme steering group. According to the PwC report, "the terms of reference and composition of the CHP&P Steering Group and Board meant that their collective ability to provide challenge to the role of the NPHDB was limited". The report also looked at the board as a "single point of failure". I think that is the terminology that was used.
