I have two more questions. First, there is a difficulty with recruitment at the moment, notwithstanding the significant increases in staff numbers over the past ten to 12 months. Were the most sensitive areas the recipients of those extra or required staff? The services are indicating that they want recruitment restored but it is not about using an employment agency. Recruitment needs to be restored to the places that are under pressure now.
