Well, thank you for that question. Can I say, first of all, the individual items of that case, if you want to bring them to my attention, either write to me, or, if you want to meet with me, I'm more than happy to discuss them, and see what can be done in that individual case?

One of the biggest factors in front of us is the issue of delayed transfers of care, of course. I don't know whether that was a material factor in this particular instance, but, certainly, we are aware that, in the ABMU area, in particular, the significant increase recently was a result of delayed transfers of care, and I wonder if that hit on to the impacts. But I'll have a look at the individual instance you refer to, and we'll see what can be done.
