I get that but I think it is fair to ask. This is a public organisation that is publicly funded. This is the HSE reporting to the Minister for Health. Who decided to whittle down all of these regional demands coming in and said there should only be three elective hospitals? It is a very straight question and this is the third committee meeting. I was placated the last time by being told I would be furnished with the answers afterwards. I never got them. I only have one question. Who whittled down demands and options and said there should only be three? That is all I need to know. It is not the Minister, it is not Government, and it is not the University Hospital Limerick management.
