Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman.
I have just one question, if I may.
Brigadier-General, when I read the report and listen to your evidence—and of course you were before the public accounts committee discussing this before—the one figure that strikes me is the large percentage of your trained medical professionals not providing care to our forces. It is significant—at least I think it's significant. It suggests to me a systems problem. But you're dealing with a tremendously challenging situation. You're organizing and implementing the health system for 65,000 people spread out all over the world. It's basically an all rural, rather than urban, system. You're in an environment that is extremely competitive. The IT seems to be an issue; the measurement seems to be an issue; the governance seems to be an issue. And of course you have to operate in a command and control environment, which is not normal.
But as far as the whole health system is concerned—and this really is a specialty unto itself now, as a lot of the people doing this are not physicians or surgeons, but are trained in this area—do you feel you have the people around you who are really up to scratch in the whole area of modern health management? I say this because it is an extremely important issue with the challenges you face, which I think are very high. The whole recruitment issue is brutal, for example, and I don't think it's going to get any better over the next five or ten years.
