Comisiynu Cartrefi Gofal i Bobl Hŷn: Sesiwn Dystiolaeth 3
Okay. The first of June, I believe, is quite an important day for you all because it's the time whereby a local authority is going to be hopefully submitting their stability reports. Are they all on track in Wales at the moment to be able to provide those…

As my lovely, esteemed colleague Peredur mentioned in his question earlier, I've had the privilege of meeting a lot of people who have private nursing homes, as well as meeting those who are residents in, I should say, local authority-run care homes as well…

Just one final sub-question, please, Chair, and I promise that then I'm done. I'll be the hope and positivity; let's hope, in a year's time, that the situation improves and things resume back to pre-COVID days, with a little bit of normality and stability in…

Comisiynu Cartrefi Gofal i Bobl Hŷn: Sesiwn Dystiolaeth 3
Okay. Thank you for that. My final question: we've all heard in the news at the moment about the cost of living—that sentence, I think, is the bane of a lot of people's lives at the moment. But I do want to ask you, in relation to care, going forward, for the…

Okay. Thank you so much. I've got two more questions for you, and then I'll pass you on to the Chair again. Towards the end of the year, England is going to be introducing an £86,000 cap. It's a concept that I think the UK Government has actually brought out…

Yes. It's great feedback—to hear from yourselves. We do get briefings, and we've read the report—I'm sure many of my colleagues are aware of it as well, as much as I am. And it's nice to hear from you as to how much of an impact it's actually had.
