I am interested to know if there are lower rates of staffing among CDNT networks that are being serviced by section 38 and section 39 organisations, section 39 organisations in particular, or if there is a different rate. I do not want the average or the mean. It is interested to me whether there are different levels. If a person is in an area where the CDNT is serviced by a particular organisation that is not the HSE, are the staffing levels likely to be less? That is the first question, and the witness might not know the answer off the top of her head.

Has the HSE, in the past two quarters, revised or cancelled any contracts with section 38 or section 39 organisations because they have not been able to staff those networks over a period of time? Has the HSE reformed or revised any of those contracts?
