The committee will carry out scrutiny of this report. If it takes more than one session, we will certainly do that. We are at the mercy of the Department and RCOG regarding when they can come to give evidence. When the representatives come to the committee, we will give them every opportunity, and members will have every opportunity to interrogate the report. If we do not get satisfaction on the first day, we can have whatever number of meetings is required to examine this report. The Deputy will be aware that we have invited them on a number of occasions to examine this report and we had earmarked 4 December, and then it moved to 18 December. We will have them in on 18 December and we will have them in at a subsequent meeting if we need to.
