That is what I wanted to establish. We are essentially starting from scratch again and will try to screen as many people as we can as quickly as possible. I hope that next year will see a return to the numbers of previous years.

Before I move to Professor Ó Laoide, I will ask Ms Morrogh about her opening statement. Screening is important, but rapid access to assessments, testing, diagnoses and treatment is more important. She posed a scenario: "Imagine being symptomatic but unable to get timely access to a test". Is the lack of timely access down to a lack of CT or MRI scanning equipment, a lack of specialists or both?
