It is an important question. I would appreciate it if the Minister would come back to me to clarify how the decision is made and what differentiation there is.

In regard to outsourcing, and while I hope I am not misinterpreting him, I welcome the Minister's comments that he would like to see the service reinstated in Ireland and that he has been in consultation with the HSE in regard to doing that. Will he clarify that? What consultation has there been? What has the HSE been asked to do and what is the time span?
