Regarding the Department of Finance, I understand that things move to other Departments or authorities as crimes are committed. However the Department has lead policy in the area of authorised push payments. I gave the statistics earlier on. I make the point that we are fighting a losing battle but in my view, we are fighting it with both arms behind our back. Will Mr. Palmer point to me the success of his Department in relation to policy initiatives that have helped us in that fight over the last couple of years?
