I take what the professor said. Where are the witnesses in relation to the medical assessment? Are they proposing changes or are they looking at changes? Do they think it is fit for purpose at the moment? I wanted to follow up on that comment, and Professor Murphy has just mentioned it again. I know she is not saying that we should carte blanche give carer's allowance to everybody, but where are the witnesses in their research with regard to the area of medical assessments?
