I thank the Minister for his response. I am happy to request a meeting to discuss the matter further. What progress has been made on access to chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy in Northern Ireland? Will the Minister outline any reasons for the delay in the availability of CAR T-cell therapy?
