Professor Riste?rd ? Laoide:

On the diagnostics waiting list, I am aware that the Irish Cancer Society representatives mentioned a figure of 250,000 earlier. That relates to an undifferentiated waiting list for diagnostics. In other words, it relates not to cancer but to all diagnostics available in the system. As a radiologist, I know that if anyone is referred with the question of cancer, he or she does not go on a waiting list but into the diagnostic service. I do not know whether Mr. Kidd wants to talk about diagnostics generally, because that is where the waiting list figure is.
