There is a serious problem in the south in relation to rehabilitation, overall. We have a huge challenge in this regard, which I have raised previously. There are long delays in getting people out of the hospital setting. As a result, there is a logjam getting people in, because we cannot get people out. Is it not time to address this, especially now that we are facing into a time when there could be a huge growth in demand coming into the winter months?
