Dear Shan Tapsell,

Thank you for your help and providing that information, it was very much appreciated. We won't request that the information in question 3 or 4 be provided at this stage.

I just had one quick clarification question regarding the rehabilitation costs provided in question 10. Do these rehab cost refer to in patient rehabilitation?

Yours sincerely,

Julie Hands
