Mr. David Sweeney:
On the piece that we have, we have declarations provided to the hospital through an automated system similar to the one that is being developed. Those responses are compiled and reported in through EMG and our hospital board. Where we do not have a declaration, it is not to suggest that people have a declaration and are not returning it. It is more an absence of a receipt of a response, and that aspect of lack of response could very conceivably be captured at other hospital sites. From a management perspective, we need to develop matters internally by making that a little more robust and tracking and tracing those non-declarations, but it is not to suggest that they have valid declarations.
