Mr. Jim Breslin:

Three or four, and we have further posts to resource that area further. We have not yet arrived there, but the process of recruitment has been finalised for a post for the management team for research and development in health analytics.

It will be the first such post across government where information and evidence will be at the heart of our management team discussions. The person will come with a very strong track record in the area of data and analytics.
