We are very tight for time.

Thank you very much, and thank you to Lucy and—sorry, do you want to come in, Bob? Please be quite quick.

Thanks very much. Marie McNair, do you want to come back in?

Thanks very much, Lucy.

Thank you, Dr Simpson.

Dr Rushton, how do IIAC’s membership and expertise differ from those of the Social Security Advisory Committee? Can you comment on that?

I thank Dr Rushton and Dr Simpson for taking part in our meeting and sharing their valuable expertise. We will continue to take evidence on the bill in the coming weeks.

That concludes our business in public.

I do not see any other hands up, so we will move on.

I invite Roz McCall in.

Thank you, minister. We now move to questions, which will be directed to you. You are, of course, welcome to invite any of your officials to respond, should you wish to do so.

I will kick off. How well is work progressing on providing clear, accessible information for kinship carers about the legal arrangements around kinship care and about how they can access their rights and get support and advice?

I invite Marie McNair in.
