Mr. Damien McCallion:
They are. I do not envisage any issues. The voluntary hospitals, for example, are part of the national imaging system and all of the other projects. As we roll those out, for example, the electronic heath record, we have already agreed the first region, which is under my colleague Ms Long. The Mater and Beaumont are part of that. They will form part of the implementation within that region. That will include other people outside the voluntary hospitals because this will be across hospital and community. This will be one of the key systems to allow staff to work in an integrated way between community and hospital. It is a big programme but, as I said, we are advancing the other pieces as well.
