How many did they then actually do on the averaging and on the TCA? That is why I was a bit puzzled about the third, third, and the third because there are only two choices. It is binary. I spend time, like every other TD I presume, looking at the contribution records and doing the calculations - getting the kid's birth dates and all of the rest. At the moment, it seems that a lot more people are better off on the averaging than there are on the TCA. I might be totally wrong, or maybe I am talking to the wrong people or maybe the people coming to me do not have great social insurance records or whatever but that is what I am finding. I am just curious when it is calculated in the totality of all claimants how it breaks down. It would be useful for the committee to get those figures because it will begin to have an impact from 2025 on.
