I apologise for interrupting, but I do not want there to be any misapprehensions. The disability premium will not survive under the new arrangements because of the new structure of the benefit, but in the income-related amount the components can include the enhanced disability premium, the severe disability premium, the pensioner premium and the carer premium where appropriate. The pensioner premium is an overlapping benefit in that calculation. Those premiums will survive.
