I thank the Minister of State for her reply. Most of it concerned A Vision for Change, which we all accept is a very good document. However, the Minister of State mentioned a development control plan. Is it possible to get a copy of that plan? I am sure it is freely available. Does the Minister of State know what it contains? That was the bones of my Adjournment matter.

The Minister of State mentioned provision for appropriate accommodation and the phased relocation of patients to appropriate community-based facilities. My concern relates to the word "appropriate", which is the operative word. What is to become of the enormous facility at St. Loman's Hospital? It is a massive old building and is a protected structure. Perhaps the Minister of State will return to me in her own time with answers.
