I am sorry. My time is very limited. I asked Mr. Morrison about how the justification given for the move is that the current premises does not meet standards, yet he is saying that the residents will be moving to St. Stephen's Hospital and St. Catherine's ward, which both have dormitory-style accommodation that are not high standard. How, therefore, can he reconcile that as the motivation put forward for the change?
