I can see that that would be a huge issue. Throughcare would help to stop the revolving door of people coming back into the system.

The work is in progress. Thank you; that is helpful.
Malcolm Graham, I have a question about virtual domestic abuse courts. You say in your submission that you require agreement on funding for a pilot of those courts. I am a bit confused, because I understood that there were already pilot domestic abuse courts. Were those physical courts rather than virtual ones? What level of funding would you need to set up virtual courts?

I have a quick question for John Logue before I move on to Malcolm Graham.
There is a story in the press today about 4,600 Covid deaths in care homes still being under investigation by the Crown Office. How is operation koper going, and what is the timescale for investigating the remaining cases?

I understand that. Basically, you are saying that you have not had to hand any back?

I have a brief point that goes back to the earlier conversation about body-worn cameras. I might have misheard this, so I apologise if I did. You talked about COP26 and how it was an embarrassment that our officers were not going to have the cameras for that. Did you say that you got them in at pace?

I have a brief question for James Gray, which goes back to an element of Ben Macpherson’s questioning. Throughout our constituencies, a lot of older, not-fit-for-purpose police offices have been closed. Do you have figures for the capital take from that so far?
