Mr. Brian Purcell:

Yes. The asylum element, although it is a significant part of the process and very intensive in terms of the work involved for the State, the people concerned and the agencies who help them, is only a part of the process. I will raise this matter in discussions with the officials in INIS to determine whether there is any way in which we could come up with a set of targets that would be meaningful, particularly with an eye to the enactment of the immigration Bill. We will consider this.
