With respect to disability, we have definitely noticed as a family that there has been a marked deterioration. I trace it back to the financial crash and the beginning of austerity measures. In the last ten years we have seen a gradual deterioration in services and supports in our experience of disability and so on. Is AsIAm experiencing a similar deterioration or are things improving? Are Mr. Harris and his colleagues optimistic or how do they feel about this?

It would be great if our guests could answer the questions in reverse order.
