Welfare Reform Bill

My formulation covers that because that would be acting unreasonably. If there is childcare across the road and a parent says, "I don’t care. I am going nowhere", that would be acting unreasonably. I was very careful about that. It comes down to what is the provision and who agrees whether or not it is fair. This is a really important point: it is the parent who judges the reasonableness. It is the parent who says prima facie, "That is unreasonable for me. It is my child and my future". If they are acting unreasonably, that is understood and no one would want to give them a blanket exemption just by pleading inadequate childcare, flying in the face of the circumstances that obtain at the time.
