Standard application processes are great but they do not help everybody. Not everybody in this world fits into a standard box. One cannot generalise or categorise people. What happens to someone who falls outside of the standard applications process, such as the guy I am talking about? That is where I am coming from and is why I believe that having this in the Dublin city ETB instead of a local situation was wrong from the beginning. I accept it is where it is now but there has to be some other way of looking at it instead of just standardised applications, because not everybody fits that.
