I think those really are questions that will come up through the stakeholder consultations that Minister Kearney will do, will undertake, so, again, it is too early for me to answer that question directly. But the work where it will intersect with my work is around the national gender equality strategy, and women's health will be a focus of that as well. Essentially, we are doing further work, both on the gender equality strategy and the work that Minister Kearney is dealing with, in terms of access to health services, and further consultations will be held. I know this is an issue that has been raised with me, and it's appropriate that we allow those discussions to happen.
