The business case is particularly important. There was no business case at the inception. The Minister stated that 3.9 million people now have cards. Can she explain when the business case was done? Did it set out the benefits, savings, and so on? If so, when was it done, and what was the total number of cards given out? Have the activation and renewal costs been included, as the cards run out after a period? Is that all set out in the business case?
