Okay. I want to move onto the issue of getting information out there. I want to focus, in particular, on lung cancer and prostate cancer. I am not convinced that there is enough information out there to ensure that people can go to their GP and then on for further checking at an earlier stage than is happening currently. Is there a plan as regards getting more information out there? Dr. Faul mentioned the lower-income groups. How do we focus on getting information out in order that people can access healthcare in a timely manner?
