I am sure Deputy O'Rourke has important points to make and as such I will not run over time. I will concentrate in my final minute on a point I have made previously. I have had to deal with many traumatic issues during my time as a public representative. While I have not had to deal with large volumes of cases I have had to deal with some cases involving serious issues which upset families and, in particular, women. These people were upset by the denial, lack of information, cover-up and failure of persons in the medical field to come forward to back up their original instincts. I welcome that a member of the review team is a person with patient focus. I look forward to its input.
