No, I think we are all clear on that. Getting interventions at an early stage is the key to this, even in terms of resource allocation. We do not then have to have the other interventions as we go along. Organisations such as Jigsaw and Mindspace Mayo certainly serve a purpose in that regard. In terms of being able to really meet the need that is there, however, is Professor Downes saying the models we have here work and just need to be adjusted?
