I referred to the duplication of services in some areas, which results in a higher cost. In the area of cancer care, for example, a major programme of reform has led to the establishment of eight centres of excellence for the provision of services. I am concerned that significant sums of money are going out to the voluntary sector where, in some instances, there is a duplication of services and, in other areas, a dearth of services.
