I should have started by thanking all the paramedics out there. They do a fantastic job under very difficult circumstances. They often have to visit horrific scenes. With regard to the well-being and support that is there for paramedics, is there a well-being and support programme in place? Those people need the same supports as they give to the people who are on the road. There is also a question around the whole area of dignity, inclusivity and accountability. Do the witnesses believe that this exists in the service? These are my final two questions.
