It's certainly a debate now. The point I wanted to raise, and I know that the committee hasn't had much time to look at this, but there is specific provision in the Measure for that which the Chair has just outlined. It would be possible for the Government to designate, through regulations, anyone to be captured under the Measure who is in receipt of more than £400,000 of public funding. Not all, but most independent primary care providers do receive this sum, and therefore could be encapsulated under this Measure. Was there any consideration given by the committee, or by the Minister, as to why this wasn't adopted?
