In my capacity as number-cruncher for the Citizen's Income Trust, I have spent this weekend trying to get the bottom of all the overlapping schemes which various government bodies administer. To simplify things in my mind I had to create a flowchart. The joke is that whichever of the three boxes at the bottom you land in, you end with with about £30 - £40 for each child at a registered nursery or child minder. Why do they bother? Don't answer that.
