i think that is something which quite frankly, nhs has now moved all targets associated with reducing c-sections. but it shows -- was one of the trustwhich had the lowest, one of the lowest c-section rate in the nhs. the third thing is the blame culture. i mean, even in this inquiry, -- believes that doctors, nurses, midwives were pressurized not to be open with her until they could be professional reprisals if they were. too often in the nhs, it is difficult for doctors and nurses to speak out. the thing we really wanted to learn from mistakes, we make it too hard. >> is a fourth point funding as well? given the first part of the part of the report which was published last year, as you know, an extra 95 million pounds i believe was made available by nhs england in funding for maternity care. there wasn't enough money available. >> there's always pressures on funding. in all health systems because of the aging population now, of course the pandemic pressures. but i think if you ask people in the nhs today, they would say that staffing shortfalls is a bigger issue. sometimes they have the money to pay for the doctors, nurses, midwive
