Adults with Learning Disabilities

Before the hon. Gentleman moves on, I want to press him on a question that relates to what my hon. Friend the Member for Macclesfield (Sir Nicholas Winterton) said a moment or two ago. The hon. Gentleman is talking about interaction with the criminal justice system. Does he agree that, in some cases, making reasonable adjustments might actually lead to vast savings of public expenditure? That contrasts sharply with the situation that he and my hon. Friend were discussing, in which reasonable adjustments involve vast expenditure to support people in independent living. If we were to start with the cases in which there would be vast savings, we could use them to support cases in which there would be greater expenses.
