Sure, and I am sure this committee will do everything we possibly can because we are acutely aware of the logjams within the health service, especially in relation to GP services. GPs are at the start of the process, if you like, and unless we get that right, it will cause difficulties upstream. We fully understand that. I am wondering what kind of engagement Dr. Farrell's organisation has had at a senior level within the Department in terms of these very important issues.
