Yes, but how does the Department establish that a person was caring and, if one was receiving the carer's support grant, does that give one the full 52 weeks cover? This is because, as Mr. Duggan will know, with the carer's support grant I have seen literalism in the Civil Service in recent years. There has been, as I say, a literal approach, where for eligibility for the carer's support grant one has to have been caring in June. That is all.
