The challenge of recruiting staff was mentioned and we are aware there are issues in this regard. Will Mr. McCallion outline the steps that are being taken to repatriate the testing? We will not go back over it but we know it was a political decision to outsource it. I am very proud that I opposed it at the time, although I was not a politician. Other politicians did. I do not believe it was best practice but it was done. Are any efforts being made? There is a long lead-in time for repatriating. Owing to the fact it was outsourced, we do not have a lot of the clinical expertise. What efforts are being made?
