I appreciate that the Government have said that it may be difficult to identify the point at which advice crosses over into the facilitation of fraud, but the examples that I have just quoted obviously cross that line. Mr Bolton provides scripts so that viewers can score the maximum number of points in an assessment. The whole purpose of the assessment, in our submission, is to work out whether someone has a genuine entitlement to welfare payments. If someone is reciting from a script, rather than relaying their own experiences as truthfully as they can, surely this is a form of fraud.
