Mr. Liam Woods:
They may be whole system numbers, not just acute services. However, in terms of the core of the Deputy's question, our overall approach is to seek to reduce agency staff figures and in 2017 in the acute system there were reductions. The three main components of agency costs in the acute system are medical, nursing and healthcare assistants.
