Portability - Carer Payment, Carer Allowance and Carer Supplement

Question

Senator RUSTON: Are the portability arrangements for carers payments the same as they are for DSP, or are they a different set of arrangements in terms of the portability of them? Mr Flavel: I will take that on notice simply because there were different portability arrangements put in place for DSP some years ago, and I think they're different than those for carer payment.
