May I refer briefly to a point I raised earlier? I did get a reply, but I am prompted by an idea that crossed my mind. I accept that acute hospitals are a stand-alone service. With regard to the small hospitals framework and the grouping of primary care and urgent care centres into hospital groups, is there a co-ordinated strategy between them all? Is there an integrated strategy? Who is organising it to ensure it happens and is delivered?
