That is very honest. That was my next question. We have a situation where almost 1 million people have been on waiting lists for far too long. People in emergency departments are waiting so long to be seen. That is no disrespect to the front-line staff, but that is just not acceptable in a wealthy country. Hopefully under Mr. Gloster's tenure, and with the help of all the front-line staff, that can be addressed, because that is not acceptable.
