If we are talking about rolling out community care, there needs to be an emphasis on this and I do not think there is. We are very much focused on a five-day week. This is the same issue with GP care. It is very much a five-day service. We give out about the focus on hospital care, but the reason there is such a focus on hospital care is that it is available seven days a week. That is an issue we now need to challenge as well. How do we develop community care seven days a week?
