Ms Dearbh?il Nic Giolla Mhic?l:

As was said, there are two categories of people. There are the people for whom we already have claims in payment, and those are reviewed over time after the legislation has changed. That is standard practice, that we would make sure the position of the people on hand reflects the changed rules. As to the question of how we might make people who maybe have not claimed before aware of this, we do not have a campaign planned as such, but as the legislation goes through, there will be publicity and we do work closely with a lot of the lone parent representative groups as well, so they would be aware of the changes too.
