I have another question. Are letters still being written on an annual basis to those in receipt of carer’s allowance, reminding them that it is their responsibility to inform the department if their earnings exceed the carer’s allowance limit, so that they should no longer be receiving the allowance? This was thought to work, but it did not stop some individuals claiming that letters did not arrive, while some people, I regret, chose to ignore or not even read the letters that had arrived correctly.
