I would like a response to the next question from Mr. Collumb, Ms Daly and Mr. Toner. In their estimation, what number of people have a need for a PA service or a significant increase in the number of hours service already provided to them, taking into account the definition of personal assistant? Mr. Collumb, Ms Daly and Mr. Toner are in employment. Perhaps each of them would comment on whether they would be able to work if they did not have a particular level of personal assistant service and also outline the band of service provided to them?
