-----but can I just say one thing? Is Ms McArdle telling me then that the Department of Health has a sense of the situation across all the service providers? Let us take Gardiner Street as an example and say there are 320 of these placements on that street. Would the Department of Health have a sense of that and the kind of social impact such a number of placements is going to have on that street? Is anyone in the Department of Health doing this type of analysis?
