Text

I appreciate the Minister's agreement on how important that is for moving forward. We need a tangible plan, however, and we need to recognise that. I think that it was Chris Whitty who said that we need to design our public services to reflect the population that we serve. How are the Executive doing that in particular so that we do not find ourselves in a much worse situation than we are in now?
