Professor Brian Lenehan:

I do not believe that our existing model 2 hospitals are in a position to be upgraded to model 3 hospitals. There are a significant infrastructure and staffing requirements and significant capital and resourcing costs. What we need to do is develop our model 2 hospitals, as we have been doing and as Professor Cowan outlined in her opening statement. We need to deliver the capacity and resources needed in UHL. That is how our hospital group operates.
