I'm keen to understand the rationale that sat behind the decision by the government in this particular package to halve care management charges, particularly when one of the things that was raised during the inquiry—we heard it on numerous occasions—was that there's often a lot of criticism around care management not being as valued and as embedded into peoples' packages as would deliver the best care for an individual so that their care meets their circumstances, particularly the circumstances of the community that they live in. What was the process that was taken to determine that care management fees were to be cut in half?
