Would you take—? Would you agree with me that there are some people in our region who have had to travel to places such as Norwich in order to access private support because they wait so long for assessment? If there were to be a Bill such as the one being proposed today, it would be possible to ensure that they receive the treatment earlier and that they get that assessment at an earlier stage and that would provide those families who are suffering at the moment with some sort of hope.
