I’m very conscious of the difficulty that some smaller organisations have in commissioning, but we will look very specifically around the criteria expected on that, about having local connections, and making sure that they can deliver good, quality services.

I would like to give confidence to the Member around reassuring him, and others, about the funding mechanism in place. But, of course, budgets are extremely tight at the moment, and the budget process is coming up, of course. Where services are affordable, we will deliver them, and I hope that we can give confidence to some of the smaller organisations that the criteria around that will not disadvantage them.
