I did not want to interrupt the Under-Secretary in the middle of what is clearly an important and complex technical point. However, she seems to be telling the Committee that although the payment relating to the new home could be backdated, it would not, by definition, be available on the first day of moving. Therefore, a tenant in that situation would potentially have a cash-flow problem.
