Surely, Cabinet Secretary, one of the other ways of improving access to GPs is to reduce unnecessary burdens, and I’ve seen first hand the tremendous work of community pharmacists in my own constituency dealing with, for example, minor ailments. So, I wonder what hope he holds out that the Choose Pharmacy platform, where patients can, with some knowledge, actually access community pharmacies to deal with those things that will take some of the load away from GPs—so that GPs are freed up then to deal with very much the type of patients that Angela Burns has just been referring to.
