I shall certainly withdraw it. I was extremely interested in the further information that the Minister gave me over and above what I gleaned from proceedings in another place. I shall study it with great interest. She appeared to say that, with the exception of a tiny minority, there was no problem in the reallocation of child benefit to the correct parent. I am delighted to hear that that is the case.
As regards the new arrangements for carers credit, one rather wonders whether that is likely to be of the same low order. As I said, I shall study very carefully what the Minister said and, if necessary, come back at a later stage. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
