It may not be possible for this committee to deal with it, but what of the issue of the cost of drugs and medications in the healthcare sector? There is a question about whether we are getting value for money when there are substantial delays around the drug approval process. I will be open. We were out with AstraZeneca yesterday. It is manufacturing five drugs and only two of them are available.
