I will read the response I got and I want to pick the brains of the witnesses in terms of whether they believe this is satisfactory and if we are on the right course. The response states that there is currently no funding for community neurorehabilitation teams within CHOs 5, 8 and 9, but moving forward with the strategy and subject to the success of the MCRN, which is the managed clinical rehabilitation network demonstrator project, the plan would be to establish population-based community neurorehabilitation teams from now through to the end of 2026 within each regional health area, RHA, following the implementation of the new regional health areas, subject to funding. There are a lot of caveats there in terms of pinning this to the regional health areas and it being subject to funding, and 2026 seems to be a target that is somewhat in the distance. What engagement has the Neurological Alliance of Ireland had, or has it had any engagement, with the national director on that? Does the information that I have match the information the alliance has been given?
