What percentage increase does Mr. Gloster see with regard to trying to improve the service? We are paying quite a lot of money to outsource work. We are dealing with the treatment purchase fund and the treatment abroad fund. We have a lot of money going there, whereas if it were spent within the hospitals, we would get continuous service and a better outcome for patients in real terms.
