Mr. David Sweeney:
I will address the point as best I can. There is a potential conflict of interest. I would concur with the view of the CEO of the HSE. The extent to which individual hospitals in the system are exposed to that conflict of interest or the extent to which it applies is an entirely different matter. From the perspective of Beaumont Hospital, we are comfortable that we have the structures within the system to oversee any movement of waiting list activity through in-sourcing or outsourcing during the course of our operations.
