The second topic is the Social Insurance Fund. I am interested in the Minster's views on the future of the fund because nothing is more certain than that more money will have to go into it. I am interested in the Minister's thinking in terms of who will shoulder the majority of that burden.

The final topic is pay-related jobseeker's benefit. Has the Department put any funding aside to review the effectiveness, or otherwise, of the new scheme? How will it be done and when will we receive feedback on it?
