All we want is factual information. I ask Mr. Reid to provide the committee with a note on how frequently there has been an interruption in supply. This should outline, for example, that on a particular date we were due to receive X number of doses from a particular company and then we received Y which was a lesser amount or more as the case may be. We should be given that information so that at least we have the facts as to how frequently we have been left short. I am concerned that the target will now reduce to 1.1 million. It was 1.7 million initially; it dropped down to 1.4 million; it was then 1.2 million; and it is now 1.1 million. Obviously, that erodes confidence in the overall roll-out if we are having problems on the supply side. If Mr. Reid could provide that detailed note to us, it would be useful.

Who is responsible for the logistical side of getting the vaccines from A to B? Who has operational responsibility for that area?
