The reason I ask is because people listening heard about those who get a top-up on their pension on retirement and they can get an injury warrant to acknowledge that, but now we find that is merely a mirage. It does not happen. It sounded brilliant here this morning that there was a system in place but it transpires that while in theory there might be a system, there is no funding to back up that system. It just does not happen. I was getting the impression there was such a facility but now I realise it is just a mirage. It is not there at all in practice.
