First Minister, the one issue that comes up time and again when I speak to the families of those who have dementia is the problem in Wales of having a specific contact worker for families who want someone to turn to whenever they would wish to do that. Now, having that kind of pledge and ensuring that such a worker is available would allow Wales to be innovative in the care that it provides to people with dementia and their families. Does the First Minister share my view that this should be a part of the final strategy, and is he confident that that will be part of the strategy?
