I thank Mr. Gloster. As regards the administrative burdens, there is a reference to reducing non-therapy admin tasks for therapists, subject to the public service agreement. We all agree that an awful lot of time is taken up in admin work and, obviously, that time would be better allocated elsewhere. Can I get clarity on how this will be actioned and whether support staff or maybe digital systems are in the pipeline to free up the therapists to do what they should be doing?
