Adults with Learning Disabilities

The hon. Gentleman is speaking with great sensitivity and, in many ways, nobody can disagree with him, but I am going to ask him the hard question. He just mentioned the amount that one individual lady cost in a week, of which she paid only 1 per cent. through, I suppose, some form of benefit. Where will the money come from to provide the quality of individual care that enables people to live independent lives, bearing in mind the massive cost and the huge pressure on social services departments and others that provide assistance for people with learning difficulties? I share many of his aspirations, but we have to come down to earth. Where will the money come from to make those facilities available?
