It can. We have now put in place a lot of infrastructure for these three layers. The view of the clinicians is to re-examine the matter once we have the supports in place for the GPs and fully staffed teams for the secondary care and really specialist care. We also have the 21 one-stop see-and-treat and gynaecology clinics. There is a whole new network of support and expertise in place which is having a big impact already. I can assure the Deputy that if we find in a year or two that more specialist resources are required we will put them in place.
