Welfare to Work - Budget 2005-06

Other allowances will be changed to improve the rewards from work.

For instance, most allowances will be eliminated.

What does it mean to parents? New parents applying for welfare with a youngest child aged 6 and over will receive a payment and obligation that recognises their capacity to work part time.

Why bother going through the hassle of making people look for work to get a payment? Much easier to just assume they have a job.
