I thank the witnesses. Mr. Bassato has come through an experience that Ireland is struggling with. I have a couple of questions which I hope he will be able to answer. In terms of rapid antigen testing, what is the sample? Is it a nasal swab, a throat swab or both? Who are the manufacturers and suppliers of the rapid antigen tests? What system is being used? Does Mr. Bassato know about the performance of the test? Does it meet the standard of clinical sensitivity of greater than 80%, which is a requirement set out in a recent report by our quality authority here?
