In your letter to the committee of 10 August, you stated that changes to eligibility for Scottish carers assistance could not be made until after the end of case transfer. When do you expect carers assistance to be introduced? How quickly do you expect case transfer to be completed?

I appreciate the concern around ensuring that carers will not be worse off as a result of getting this benefit. You said that you were having discussions with the DWP. Do you expect to be successful in the discussions on different options for the treatment of carers assistance in relation to reserved benefits?

I, too, worked on the Social Justice and Fairness Commission and I am a councillor on the Highland Council.
