Is it not the case that private charity exists solely to enable an applicant's children to have continuous education, and that they can only make such grants to people as are in receipt of public assistance? Therefore, what is happening now is that private charities can never be used to subsidise public assistance, and that the applicant is no better off. Will the Minister consider issuing amending instructions so that people can benefit from private charity?
