I do not know that there is much more I can add because I am not aware of the history of the various inquiries the Deputy made. If he wishes to obtain additional information, the Minister for Health and I will do everything in our power to ensure he is furnished with it. Information and reassurance are vital in these cases. The provision of a helicopter service, though, is crucial, as the Deputy has acknowledged on a number of occasions. We want to ensure patient safety and to ensure they are transported quickly and safely to hospital. If there is anything with which we can help the Deputy, we will do everything in our power to do so.
