Two things will come out of that, I suppose. We have in care and not in care. Are there children who are not in care who do not have a allocated social worker? What percentage is that and what are they missing as a consequence? I also want to state that I do not doubt for a minute the dedication, so I am not casting any aspersions on that. I just want to know what a child is missing as a consequence.
