Lovely. Well, thank you for being with us this morning. I wonder, just to set the scene, if you could give us a brief description of the bowel screening programme and your role as well in commissioning colonoscopy and diagnostic services.

Welcome back to the Health and Social Care Committee. We move to item 3, and this is our second panel in regard to evidence on our inquiry into endoscopy services. We have a panel of two witnesses this morning. Perhaps I could ask you to introduce yourselves…
