I will talk about St. John's for a second. I want to say one thing about processing. The Deputy might not agree with me but I have to say it. The Deputy asked about the 83 beds. There is funding for 190 extra beds. We have asked every hospital in the country to put up their hands and state how many more beds they can open if we fund them. They are still coming in and 83 have come in. Of that 83, 15 are in St John's and they will open next week.
