I am not sure about Northern Ireland, but I presume it is the same as the UK where, as in the South, there is a significant backlog in health services, in particular outpatient services and cancer diagnosis. The work of CAWT therefore increases in importance. Increasing co-operation is critical to everybody's healthcare, North and South. I very much like what the witnesses are talking about. I would appreciate if they could send us more data and the annual report. It is very important for us, in that although we live in different counties and we have different problems, in one respect they are the same in the sense that we do not have enough services.
