Welfare Reform Bill

I have another daft laddie question to complete this important debate, as the Minister described it. The case loading for the contract will be crucial. Is it too early to say what will be the range of the average caseload compared to the pilot projects? My experience is that if you ask personal advisers to deal with much more than 40 or 50 cases at any given time, that puts them under some pressure. Is there a target? That tracks back into the capacity question because if we do not have enough of those people, they will have to do more. Do the Government have any view about that or is it too early to say exactly where that figure will rest? Obviously, it will differ in different parts of the country, but any guidance on that would be helpful.
