The HSE essentially wants a renegotiated contract, a stronger contract. Although I do not want to put words in Mr. Woods's mouth, is he confident that as this contract runs down over the next few weeks, the pathways are there to use the capacity to a greater extent than it has been used thus far? How confident is he that the next contract will meet the needs of the HSE in terms of its relationship with the private hospitals?
