I know the Minister has not received the report yet. Will she confirm that all the information she and the Taoiseach have to date has been made available to the House? Will she outline in more detail than she did in her speech what actions the Health Service Executive took and what further contact she had with it following the communication in July 2005 from Mr. Naughten? She mentioned it was brought to the attention of Professor Hollywood and discussions took place on the issue. What action was taken? Was the letter of 5 July brought to the Minister's attention at that time? Where are women from the midlands to go for detection and investigation until the centres are established? Does the system have capacity to take these extra women to other hospitals without adding to delays? Will they experience delays in receiving appointments?
