Thank you. I may ask some questions that new kids on the block ask, since I have not sat at this table before.
This is with regard to how we would prioritize looking at the areas of interest that people have. I'm not in any way wishing to suggest that one person's interest is more important or less important. They are all important. Some areas, however, have more timeliness attached to them. I'm thinking of the breast implant decisions that are coming down.
I'm wondering whether in the past the timeliness of the issue was taken into consideration with regard to the work done at the health committee. I'm wondering whether the timeliness of the issue also has some impact on how we take on that work. In an election campaign, for instance, you'd say there's no point putting up signs after the election is over. In the same way, there's no point taking on an issue after decisions have been made that are irrevocable.
Could you give me some understanding of that, please?
