I will say, as a doctor, that being in healthcare is a great career. I want to acknowledge clearly that I and all of us on the Health, Social Care and Sport Committee acknowledge and thank our NHS staff for all their hard work.

As far as questions go, I have been disappointed by some of the answers that I got. I am sure that we have other questions, so perhaps we could write with them.

I will start with Ralph Roberts. Does NHS Borders expect to be able to access the treatment centre in Inverness, in the Highlands?

I want to ask specifically about the use of mobile phones, which was raised earlier. Now that more and more people are taking videos in the gym—and, I imagine, other places—and then posting them online, do you have a specific social media policy in your spaces? That sort of thing can make people feel very uncomfortable. That question is directly for Kirsty Garrett and Patrick Murphy—and, obviously, anyone else who wants to come in.

I have a question to put directly to Claire Burden about information technology infrastructure. I was very interested to hear about how you are trying to develop an all-in IT infrastructure. Could you tell us—very quickly, as we are running over time—how close you are to implementing that?

My question is for Kirsty Garrett. Even though £17 million was spent on upgrading Tollcross swimming pool, it is to be closed, along with eight other sites. What impact will that have on the community and on getting women and girls into sport? What are you doing to further improve access to facilities and to sport for women and girls?

I am sorry, but my question was specifically about where you are with elective surgery now compared with pre-pandemic levels.

Sorry—

Finally, I will go to Kirsty Garrett. What do you have in place to promote the participation of women from ethnic backgrounds?

So you will need a further conversation to find out about things such as the extra costs that might be associated with a 23-hour in-patient stay and other resources that you might need to put into a patient going to the Golden Jubilee or other treatment centres.

I am just trying to ascertain the answer to the question, which was about the comparison with pre-pandemic levels. It is not about the 52-week wait.
