I accept that, but the logic was that something was better than nothing. The Minister should not tell me that they would not prefer to get back everything that they lost or that they are happy about the things that they still have not got back and will not for some time. That would be to construe they vote in a way that does not match reality. What is the Minister's justification for continuing to withhold increments?
