I was about to address that piece. I have a note in front of me regarding it. Witnesses appeared before this committee a number of weeks ago who spoke about this. The HSE knows that the evidence base for the PDS includes the lived experience of health services of children with disabilities and their families, gathered through family representation, surveys, observations, assessments, knowledge and experience of professionals who support children with disabilities and their families, evaluation of pilots, and demonstrations by national and international published research. I do not have here the published research that references but I have no doubt we will provide that.
