Those figures are not accurate based on the figures that have been provided to me. Before Christmas, we had 1,475 who were in receipt of illness benefit for at least three months after they had transitioned from enhanced illness benefit. Those figures are way short of the figures that have been provided to me in parliamentary questions. The Minister might come back to the committee with those figures.
