Thank you, Llywydd. This is a really difficult issue, isn't it, in terms of balancing the needs and the risks in regard to emotional and mental health and well-being and the risks posed by COVID. I do hope that the Welsh Government's guidance does seek to sensitively and sensibly address those risks, but I will ask the Member in the first instance to write to the Deputy Minister for Social Services, outlining those concerns in more detail, so we can consider whether or not the guidance does fully provide the providers with the information that they need in order to take the right decisions to protect the health and well-being of the people that they provide services for.
