You would have to be foolish to think that, simply by requesting that the reviewer has expertise in complex surgery, which is a qualification, I was in some way undermining that individual. I am not. It is clear that the individual who is the external reviewer in this situation does not have the same qualifications as the individuals he is reviewing. The reason I stated that is because the Minister said to me just a few seconds ago that he did not have the clinical expertise to be able to ask certain questions. Obviously, clinical expertise is very necessary to be able to carry out a review such as this. All I am asking is why we do not have an external reviewer with the necessary qualifications to carry that out.
