I have a question, too. Will drug and alcohol services be included in direct payments? So many people are sitting in prison now and not getting the right treatment, because it comes from another budget and health or social services simply do not want to pay for it.
I asked the Minister at one of our meetings who was going to do the assessments. Again, like my noble friend Lady Finlay, I would like to know what happens if the budgets run over, which I can see happening.
