The argument made by those who are in this system is that they do not want to be going to see a neurologist in one hospital and going to someone else for something else. It is important to have a centralised structure - that one-stop shop element, or whatever - where all the elements to treat an illness are in one particular area. How important does Dr. Lambert consider that to be? I know he is very keen for the GPs to have a role in this because not everyone can be brought into the two, three or four clinics that we will be establishing around the country.
