Yes, I would welcome that.

Palliative care is covered in the briefing document. We have all probably been contacted by constituents who, unfortunately, have been unable to be with their loved ones as they pass away, some due to Covid and some due to whatever conditions they have as normal. The once-off funding, as outlined, is hugely welcome and is desperately needed. That is fantastic. However, I note from the outline given that it is very much geared towards existing specialist palliative care settings. Is there any funding available, or can that be broadened out, to include additional financial supports to palliative care or end-of-life care in a hospital setting because that is an issue?
