I guess I am thinking of some personal relationships that I have known of, which are not necessarily military. Sometimes marriages or civil partnerships break down, but that person still retains a close relationship with the person whom they have divorced or from whom they have split. We can imagine situations that are still very reasonable; they are all still part of a family, in a direct way. I wanted to put that on the record. I do not necessarily expect the Minister to respond now, but I wanted to raise my concern about that word “immediately” in those draft regulations and whether it is something that we need to think about.
