I had the pleasure of getting a public services card with Eoin Browne in Galway a number of months ago - I will not comment on whether I will need it or not. What is the process for making sure someone does go in and get one? Is there a timeline or a target set, where someone is written to and told that if they do not sign up for a public services card when they have the opportunity to do so their payment will cease? Is that how it works?
