However, on advice and reflection, I genuinely believe that section 10(5) enables me already to have that information. In a practical sense in my Department, that information is available through the HIPE system directly from our health services already. I am happy to share what is available with Senators between now and Report Stage. I fully agree with what the amendment is trying to achieve, but I think, respectfully, that it is superfluous. Perhaps the Senator might consider withdrawing it and perhaps I can convince her between now and Report Stage. It is entirely her own call.
