I understand that but what I am getting at is whether the core funding system allows consultants working in the core funding model of 37 hours-plus to do extra hours to try to clear patient backlogs. My point is that they are not going to do that if they can get funded through the insourcing model, which is more lucrative for them. That is the key point. There is a disincentive for them to do additional work on the public waiting lists under the core funding system. This is exactly what the HSE report seems to suggest, that it is a disincentive, which is why the HSE chief is suggesting that insourcing should be phased out by the summer of next year.
