I have one brief question. I was looking through the various submissions, in particular, those from Barnardos and the Society of St. Vincent de Paul. On the issue of people getting out of the poverty trap and going to work, how can the family income supplement and various schemes be made more efficient? We are dealing with the situation on the ground and we see how the system works. I want to zone in on FIS because it is geared towards people in employment.
