I accept that, but this meeting was suspended at 11 o'clock. If I were someone who had just had a stroke, I would have been leaving here very depressed because there was no emphasis at all on the progress that has been made. I accept what Mr. Macey is saying about the need to employ more people and I accept the need to make more progress on this, but it is important we also give the positive side of the progress that has been made, especially on stroke, and to how we can reduce the level of challenges that anyone who has had a stroke faces, which I fully accept. It is important to also highlight the progress that has been made.
