If the Deputy keeps focusing on inputs, the number of doctors and nurses and on money, he will get nowhere because that was what was done for the previous ten years. We are focusing on outcomes for patients, in particular, the number treated and how quickly, and that is what will give us the health service we all want: one in which we can feel safe and of which those who work in it can feel proud.
