I thank Dr. McMonagle. I appreciate it. I apologise for interrupting. Time is tight. Research pilots are crucial here. Funding does not just arrive automatically for multidisciplinary groups. We need to show the evidence behind it. I ask for a response at a later stage about what groups are engaging with universities within our departments of health, nursing and so on with regard to building this multidisciplinary group. What access to European funding is there to build a pilot that we could roll out in a particular CHO, working with the HSE, our colleges and with key researchers? That is the way to start the ball rolling.
