My question related to the 221 dental clinics. On full implementation of the new policy direction, will some of those be closed, will they change what they do, or will they continue to do what are currently doing? Presumably, the staff comprising 657 whole-time equivalents, as outlined by Mr. Healy, will continue to be employed. Is it planned to expand the number of workers, will 657 remain the staff complement or is it planned to phase out some of them?
