I wish to come back to the point that was made about some of those emergency calls taking two hours for a response time. That is obviously very concerning. I put a number of questions to Mr. Healy earlier, but we had limited time and it was difficult to get into the teeth of it. What are the reasons that would be the case and that in some instances people would be waiting two hours in what would be an emergency?
