I may be wrong in thinking some of the issues there might be lifestyle based and could be better treated in a less specific way. If people are waiting six months for a neuropsychology service, perhaps the follow-up service we spoke about earlier would be better suited to them.
Reference was made to prisoners and other people in carceral environments. If CHO 9 were further along in its inception, we could be having a very interesting conversation. There is a prison population in my constituency that would benefit massively from these kinds of services. I wish we could have that conversation but I do not think we are anywhere close to being able to do so.
