Mr. Liam Woods:

There are some reasons we will have some agencies some of the time that are just endemic in the business. Some maternity leave and other forms of leave may make sense. On the Deputy's core point, we have more agency than we want to have and we have agency in places where we do not want to have it. The challenge is to recruit to replace that. We will have some natural movement of staff that gives to agency just for short periods.
