I know the Minister of State has responded on behalf of the Minister, Deputy Harris. With due respect to the senior Minister, this answer does not address the specific question I asked. Is there a specific difficulty with the management of the emergency department at UHL, as has been alluded to in media reports lately? Is there an issue with the structure of the management? Is there a human resources issue with the management that is of concern? I know that the nurses and the staff on the ground are run ragged. They are doing their very best. They provide an incredible service to patients in UHL. I am concerned. I would like to know whether there is an issue with the management. Does the Minister have confidence in the management team that is running UHL?
