I hope so. One of the reasons why we have appointed armed forces liaison officers in different local authorities is to enable us to co-ordinate exactly that sort of work to ensure that the work that is done by volunteers in the third sector complements and is associated with the work that is done by statutory services. Working together, I believe we can deliver a holistic service to people who need that service, and, working together, I believe we can achieve far more than we do working in isolation. So, I do agree with you in the point that you make and I hope that by having locally based liaison officers in different parts of Wales, we're able to have that local knowledge and root services on local needs.
