It is interesting that a very large number of incidents are reported. I know they are not all cerebral palsy cases or anything of that nature, and there is a much broader range of cases. I understand Mr. Breen was only giving that as an example. I speak to parents who have gone through litigation processes to secure funds for their children for the long term. In other cases, where there has been a death, parents have gone through the process because they felt there was no other measure of accountability with the hospital, that the hospital was not responding to them, the board had not taken the matter seriously and they were not being responded to. I do not want to name any but there have been cases in the media this year where things like that have happened. If, for example, somebody has a risky situation like that and it has been notified to NIMS, is there any obligation on the hospital to tell the parents and family?
