Dr. Joe Green:

I have quite a reasonable level of confidence that we will get responses but I cannot pre-empt the outcome of the invitation to tender. As I said, the plan is to start to allocate patients within three months. It is the end of March now and we expect to begin allocating soon. It will involve the longest-waiting patients, including those the Deputy mentioned who are waiting up to five years. They will be the first to be allocated to service providers. We need the tender response to go to plan and to have sufficient capacity available to allocate the patients to a service provider in their own locality, if possible.
