I have just a quick question for Dr. Russell about the national cervical screening laboratory, on which building will begin in January 2021. Does she envisage that when it is built the screening laboratory service of Quest in the US will be discontinued? This has been controversial, to say the last, in the cervical screening scandal that has engulfed Ireland. Does Dr. Russell see, when the laboratory is finished, the services provided by Quest being discontinued?
