It is important that we have a uniform system and that people have clarity as to the structure and oversight of the payment. The report, as I said, was brought to Cabinet only in the past two days. It sets this out clearly and creates a pathway for legislation that is required, among other things. I asked that the report and the review would look at not just the structures but also how we engage with families, communicate with people and make what is a very difficult time for people a little easier. A number of elements are addressed in the overall review.
