I refer to people on dialysis. I am not taking away from people who are in nursing homes as they are an extremely important group but people on dialysis are also a very vulnerable group, in particular, because many of them attend hospital three days a week and have someone collecting them and someone dropping them home. I wonder if that would be looked at and if they would be included at a very early stage rather, as is now planned, in group 7 of the programme.
