I have one final point. It seems to me that the cyberattack has been almost equally as intrusive as Covid. I have run out of time for further questions but I ask the witnesses to come back on the specific impact the cyberattack has had.

I did not get a chance at the start to thank the witnesses. I thank them for all the extra evenings, the weekend clinics and the extended working days. That was not lost on any member of the committee, and we are deeply appreciative of the flexibility and commitment health services staff have shown in trying to deal with the unprecedented consequences of Covid and the cyberattack on the services they provide for women.
