Mr. Keith Moynes:

I might come in there. Under the ILEP regime, 51 inspections were carried out over the period 2016 to 2023. There was obviously a dip during Covid because we were not able to carry out inspections, so that figure was probably lower than one might have expected. Last year, five providers were removed from the register. Before that, one was removed in each year and then, before that, in 2019 and 2020, a couple.

They were not all for negative reasons. People may choose to remove themselves. It is not that there has not been a regime at all. Obviously, we want that to be strengthened; that is why we want to do what we propose. However, there has been a compliance regime in place.
