Mr. Stephen Mulvany:
What we call gastrointestinal, GI, scopes, is the waiting list which has reduced the most. It is down 89% for those waiting up to 12 months. We have a separate list of people who need urgent colonoscopies. We will come back to the committee with a briefing on that. That is a much shorter timeframe. We have a screening piece as well. We will come back with a note.
