Mr. Tony O'Brien:
The 14 days relate to the consultant. They are 14 working days or 20 days in round terms. That is not from discharge; it is from when the form is completed by the institution and ready for sign off by the consultant. There will be variable processes that must be gone through before that stage is reached.
