I have another question. We have discussed the Disability Act 2005. I feel very strongly that we need to review and change it. It contains a provision that gives a right for an assessment but there is no right for a service. As we all know, even when people do get an assessment of needs, the back-up service is not there. What are the witnesses views or thoughts on that?
