Mr. Bernard Gloster:

To use Senator Costello's time effectively I will start with the community waiting lists, then Mr. Healy will comment on the headline intervention and Dr. Henry can speak on drugs and the symptomatic breast cancer issue. Of all of the performances in our urgent clinics at present, we have a very good performance with prostate and lung cancer. I am concerned about our response rate for breast cancer. With regard to the methodology of the scan, I will let Dr Henry deal with this. I will ask Mr. Healy to speak first.
