I could talk about the benefits in Treasury terms. When we did the sums with Pro Bono Economics on the Treasury’s Green Book supplement on investment appraisal, we worked out that if we were to match the well-being levels of kids in the Netherlands—which we are not going to do, as we are miles away—the equivalent sum in well-being would be £80 billion a year, which is huge. We will only get a fraction of the way to that, because these things take a while to move, but the potential benefits are huge.
