My last question is around scoliosis and the degree to which the health service is getting to grips with the issue. It is a high-profile subject which is very serious and sensitive for those affected and their families. Can we report sufficient progress in that area? Are we making a real impression? This is an issue that reflects the standards, welfare and well-being of the service throughout the country.
