It has a big budget, at €505 million. It is a centre of excellence as well. It is the one that jumps out from the list. I agree we should write and look for that information but we may consider at some point in the future bringing in this hospital and others that follow it in the remit. We might put it down tentatively but I do not think it would be enough on its own. It may well be that we might have a look at some of the issues and whether there are similar issues in other locations and sectors. The university sector stands out. I cannot recall from previous reports for the hospitals that come under the remit of the Comptroller and Auditor General whether similar issues arose. Let us mark that one out.
