So let's just take a hypothetical example of someone who, a month ago, would have qualified for bereavement allowance. Let's just say, for argument's sake, they would have qualified for $2,000. As a result of the clauses that were passed last night, let's say that their payment would have fallen to $1,000. You're saying that, as a result of the amendment that we're currently debating, they will go back to the original $2,000 that they would have qualified for, so they will be no worse off?
