I thank the Minister of State for her very comprehensive reply. I am delighted that a review is going ahead. As the Minister of State said, the issue is that the three-year cap applies in the case of sudden illness but not in the case of a gradual illness such as Parkinson's disease. I welcome the Minister of State's response and I am delighted that progress is being made. I hope to keep in touch with the Minister of State about it.
