I thank the Deputy. It is a very timely question and I could not agree with her more. We had a meeting with Mr. Bernard Gloster, Mr. McCallion, Dr. Henry and the full senior Department team also about the waiting list plan on Monday. This is one of the topics I raised. The answer is categorically yes and I would expand it further, as I am sure Deputy Shortall would.
