Great. All the better.

Earlier this morning the Minister of State made the point, as I think he did on the last day, that exaggeration is much greater than fraud. I reiterate that exaggeration is fraud. I accept that exaggeration is a form of fraud and that there is blatant fraud where nothing happens or an accident has been staged. However, exaggerating a claim is still fraud. Exaggerating mileage is fraud. If one loses a coat and claims it is worth ten times its value then that is fraud.
