Minister, I'm somewhat confused by the answer that it is a minimum of 20, when some people won't need 20; I'm trying to unpack whether you're actually talking about a maximum. Why are you specifying a minimum of 20? Or are you saying that 20 is a cap or that the state has to provide for each individual a minimum of 20? You're saying that the state needs to provide them with a minimum of 20, irrespective of how many they use; is that right?
