Ms Niamh O'Donoghue:

No. The guidelines are very practical and pragmatic, taking into account the kinds of service that previously would have been the subject of requests for funding. They are guidelines under those kinds of heading, whether it be food, clothing, assistance with funeral expenses, kit-out of accommodation or travelling. There are a whole range of different headings.
