I thank the witnesses. It has been useful and powerful and has given us things to think about.

Early in the presentation, reference was made to stigmatising language. Will the witnesses tease out the correlation between the stigmatising language used in legislation and the direct impact on patients? Sometimes people can see things as just words. Will the witnesses draw the link between the two so we can understand it when we think about the language used in this legislation?
