Just a brief answer, thank you.

Any further questions from you, Natasha?

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Thanks, Claire. I'm sorry to cut you short when you want to outline the question as detailed as you can in terms of what you've achieved, so I apologise for that.

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Scrutiny of Digital Health and Care Wales: Evidence session with Digital Health and Care Wales

Sorry. I'm so sorry that we're short for time. I hate to ask, but as briefly as you can, Claire.

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Scrutiny of Digital Health and Care Wales: Evidence session with Digital Health and Care Wales

I’ve got Jack, if you've got any supplementaries on this, and then come on to your subject area, and I'll bring you back in, Natasha. Jack.

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Thank you. I've got Natasha and then Jack on this section. Natasha.

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Scrutiny of Digital Health and Care Wales: Evidence session with Digital Health and Care Wales

That was a question there, wasn't there? Or do you want to put that in the response?

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Scrutiny of Digital Health and Care Wales: Evidence session with Digital Health and Care Wales

There we are. No worries. I've got Natasha as well. [Interruption.] Just a quick one, is it?

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Scrutiny of Digital Health and Care Wales: Evidence session with Digital Health and Care Wales

That could be outside of this meeting, perhaps. Any other further questions on this section, Mike?

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Scrutiny of Digital Health and Care Wales: Evidence session with Digital Health and Care Wales

Understood. Mike, any further questions?

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Scrutiny of Digital Health and Care Wales: Evidence session with Digital Health and Care Wales

I don't want to spend too long on that.

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Scrutiny of Digital Health and Care Wales: Evidence session with Digital Health and Care Wales

I'm just conscious that we've got a lot to get through. Are the witnesses happy to stay 10 or 15 minutes longer to about 11:15? Thank you for that, because this next section I don't want to particularly skimp on time on, because it's quite an important one…

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Scrutiny of Digital Health and Care Wales: Evidence session with Digital Health and Care Wales

Lovely, thank you.

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Scrutiny of Digital Health and Care Wales: Evidence session with Digital Health and Care Wales

Before you answer that, can I just check that you're happy to move on to section 3, Mike, after that's been addressed?

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Scrutiny of Digital Health and Care Wales: Evidence session with Digital Health and Care Wales

Did you have a set of questions you wanted to move on to? Did you want to come in, Natasha?

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Scrutiny of Digital Health and Care Wales: Evidence session with Digital Health and Care Wales

Mike Hedges, all yours.

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Scrutiny of Digital Health and Care Wales: Evidence session with Digital Health and Care Wales

Thanks. We've got a lot to get through. I'm going to come to Natasha, then I'll come to Mike to ask his supplementary. And then if you want to come on to your set of questions. Natasha first.

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Scrutiny of Digital Health and Care Wales: Evidence session with Digital Health and Care Wales

Yes, but I think Gareth's point is on giving that reassurance—there's a reason why someone is using a fax machine. How do you overcome that challenge? Not what's available—how do you change that culture?

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Scrutiny of Digital Health and Care Wales: Evidence session with Digital Health and Care Wales

It's a good question. It's about reassurance, isn't it? If they are being used, why are they being used? It's to give that reassurance, absolutely. So, what's the answer?

26 October 2022, Health and Social Care Committee

Scrutiny of Digital Health and Care Wales: Evidence session with Digital Health and Care Wales

Gareth Davies.
