Mr. Stephen Mulvany:

Publication may be at that point, but the planning starts a lot earlier. Over time, we would like to move away from annual winter plans. Even this year, a lot of what was delivered as extra capacity was in service plans for this year or last year in terms of extra beds or extra staff. There is a multi-annual approach. The winter plan should really only be for additional point capacity that you can turn on quickly. Our aim is to produce those plans much earlier. They are published in October but they are worked on much earlier. We would aim to produce this year's plan in the next month or two because we know we need to be starting new recruitments then. That is what we have done in the past, anyway. We are also working on a three-year plan so we have a longer term view.
