Could Mr. Reid and Mr. Watt work with this committee over the next number of months as they evolve the policy in this area? Mr. Woods will play a leading role in this as well in terms of rolling out the regional health areas. Obviously, I want to get it right. I would imagine that every member of this committee wants to get it right so where there is good practice, we need to build that in across the health service. Equally, we are seeing some good stuff in some emergency departments and some not-so-good stuff in other emergency departments so we need to learn from where there is good practice across the board. I know a level of work is being done at a high level in terms of the management layers but I am more interested in how that will translate into the local areas. If the witnesses could work with us on that over the next few months as it evolves, it would be helpful.
