Ms Zoe Hughes:

I do not have a huge amount to say and I am conscious of time. One good thing to note was that the respite grant's name was changed a couple of years ago to the carer's support grant. That was done to reflect the changing nature of how carers use the grant, many of whom were using it as a respite from bills or extra costs and not necessarily from caring. Access to respite is a huge issue and I know there is probably not much time to discuss it but they are very valid points.
