I must confess I am a little confused because the Minister seemed to say at the start of his contribution that the report on the jobseeker's transitional payment, which is exclusive to lone parents, would cover the issues we are looking to be covered. He went on to say that he will undertake to commission a separate report along the lines suggested in the amendment. If the report on the jobseeker's transitional payment covers the issues, why does the Minister feel it necessary to commission a second report? I want some clarification on that.
