Ms Michele Tait:
There is a report that has recently been published. We can send it to the committee. The Health Protection Surveillance Centre, HPSC, has just produced it. It looks at the diagnosis of hepatitis C in 2017 in Ireland and gives a breakdown that includes the country of birth because that is recorded for anybody who has a positive diagnosis. We can send a copy of it to the committee. It was published in the last week or so.
