In respect of the whole process of amalgamation, there are differences. This is quite clear from what occurred with surgeries, where one hospital was doing them correctly and properly and two others provided treatment that it now appears was inappropriate. When the teams come together in one hospital, are we satisfied that we can get all of them to work together with no domination of one group over another that would result in procedures being changed to something that might not be the appropriate way to deal with or manage a patient?
