I have a question about some of the work that is taking place. Mr. Breslin said in his statement that "strong general assurances have been received from industry but an expert group is also examining categories of medicine where it is deemed especially important to work directly with suppliers to verify that robust contingencies are in place". Various people here are still using the present tense - examining categories and looking at supply chains. Again, we are 26 working days away from it. When will the Department be moving from a position of examining to one where it has examined. When will this work be completed to his satisfaction?
