Can the 20 added this year specifically be examined this year? I am concerned. People have been referred to residential care, for example, during Covid-19 because community care was perhaps not as available as it normally would have been. Could I suggest that, alongside the 18 that they are exiting, that the 20 new additions would be carefully scrutinised? We have to stop digging. I am concerned about the Covid-19 matter.
