Thank you Julie for giving way. Could I just say the debate today, but also the call for the public inquiry, has the support of my constituents in Llanharry and also in Maesteg, who I’ve dealt with over many, many years? My constituent from Llanharry whose son was infected by hepatitis C aged 12 and whose liver is borderline cirrhotic, who also had her two nephews infected at the same time, one of whom subsequently died and the other had a liver transplant, may draw attention to Lord Winston’s description of this as the worst treatment disaster in the history of the NHS. You have their support, and this call for a public inquiry has their support, as do many others.
