As you know, Cabinet Secretary, two of those local health boards that are affected are in my region. Before the hares start running—and they already have today—I would like you, if you will, to please restate that services will not suffer, and I will ask you also if you will bring back to this Chamber the programme for action that you intend to ask those health boards to implement to provide the changes that are needed in reducing these overspends. And I will ask you, Cabinet Secretary, if you will immediately put to bed the suggestion that was alluded to by Angela Burns that staff won’t be paid as a consequence of this.
