We have had fantastic interaction with the questions of all of the members and the information the witnesses have given us. What jurisdiction do the witnesses think is a model of best practice? Canada is sometimes cited as a model of best practice of integrated support. I apologise if I am duplicating my questions, as I stepped out of the meeting. In order of priority, what are the highest priorities for families? If we were to say that in the next six months a plan could be put in place, and then reviewed and tweaked, what do the witnesses think this might look like in their professional disciplines?
