It is great we are having this committee meeting today. I very much welcome the Bill. I wish to pick up on some of those questions about the integration with primary care and, in particular, GP records. Is there a view it will be just GMS patients who will be captured by this system, or will it be all GP patients? By extension, I am thinking of dental services and the integration of public health records and records held by private hospitals. What is the shareability? If I turn up at a private hospital or dental practice in the morning, will that accessibility be there whenever the system is fully operational?
