Very well. In conclusion, reform of the welfare system still is in its early stages and there still is much more to do. The Government is moving to put in place more jobseeker case workers from external service providers. Moreover, the Minister is targeting the welfare traps that prevent families from taking up work and I applaud her for so doing. She is to be congratulated on her proposals to date in reducing welfare fraud. However, as I stated earlier, more must be done in this regard to keep to a minimum the incidence of fraud.
