In the current home caring credit scheme, where the home caring credit is retrospectively being applied prior to recent years, let us say, with respect to the 20 years, and where it is not a child we are talking about, a certificate from the public health nurse or a letter from the GP, or medical records can be used to support the period of caring. That has been accepted and I have had it accepted by the Department in the past.
