The Ipsos MRBI survey on the most trusted healthcare providers was mentioned. That is reflected here. If the general public feel that pharmacists can be trusted, the politicians, certainly those in this room, would agree the system needs to be expanded. It is a matter of us collectively putting our heads together and asking some of those questions that need to be asked if there is clearly a shortage of places within the system. We need to ask the Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science about that. There are a number of questions that we, as a committee, can ask to move the issue along.
