Mr. Bob Patterson:

I thank the Deputy. I will explain the process we went through as part of the preliminary business case. We created a long list of options as part of the public spending code. There is a traditional do-nothing option and a do-minimum option. We then went through a package of options to purchase sites and to purchase existing facilities. We then looked at sites in the three locations, with one site each, and four facilities. There were multiple options for one hospital in each health region.
