@JuliaHB1 ....what do we do about cases for example where one parent is a full time carer thusly not working? Any thoughts? -
@HRH_Mhairi but not full time parents - most parents have to work and those on tax credits shouldn't be any different

@JuliaHB1 Julia, if i can ask..do those stats refer solely to couples or is that the figure for households with 1 claimant and.... -
@HRH_Mhairi those are stats for two-adult households. I think carers should be special case
-
@JuliaHB1 thank you. Yes me too - but how to enforce that? Has any work been done around who these families are, do u know?
