The committee secretariat has prepared a document for us in order that we can structure questions to the Minister. Page 3 contains a suggested meeting timetable. The idea is that we will ask the Minister general questions and then break questions down into topics such as pensions, working age, illness and carer's payments, the social insurance fund and so on. We might also ask her about the pre-budget forum she held. We will then hear concluding remarks from members. I draw members' attention to page 9 of the committee secretariat's document which will help us to structure questions. Will they stick to questions and keep to a time limit of three minutes?
