I have one final question and then I will bring in other members. I will and come back in at the end. Drug addiction and mental health issues among people in direct provision were mentioned. How prevalent is that? What has been the impact of the pandemic on people in direct provision? If treatments were more available does Dr. Lannon think that may be another element of dealing with the connected areas of mental health issues and addiction?
