I welcome Mr. Kearns to the committee meeting and thank him for his presentation here this morning. Cutting to what it means in reality, he referred to the recruitment campaign for RHA CEOs, and said it was a reasonable aim that it would commence in 2023. In effect, in the west, for example, we have a CEO for Saolta and a chief officer for community healthcare. Is he talking about somebody who would be over both of those, who would liaise, engage - I will not say manage - but work with both of those organisations to make sure there is better integration of services and care?
