In the context of the HCCI's submission, this committee is always interested when someone puts forward proposals relating to savings. The suggestion is made that the private sector could deliver home-care packages for 30% less than the public sector. In addition, the submission states that the system should be loosened up, that there should be more transparency and that the private sector should be able to compete with the public sector at a higher level in the context of providing this service. Is that the basis of what is proposed?
