Mr. David Moloney:

At one stage, there would have been a concern that there was a huge increase in half-rate carers. The work done, to my recollection, showed actually that there was not a systematic long-term increase, that there were particular jumps as can happen over time but that it was not a systematic long-term increase. In that instance, it pointed out that half-rate carers were not as significant an expenditure issue as might have been thought on the basis of one or two years' data.
