I welcome the witnesses and thank Ms Magahy and Mr. Sullivan for their opening statements. I have very distinct questions, some of which will involve looking for figures, if our guests have them. My first set of questions is for Mr. Sullivan. The implementation strategy document refers to introducing additional acute hospital capacity of 2,600 beds, including new elective facilities. I presume those are additional beds above the health service capacity review and national development plan. What was the baseline figure to which those 2,600 beds would be additional?
