Yes, we have an economics unit within the Department that is specifically charged with looking at this issue. Even on the basis of this short but useful discussion over the past ten or 15 minutes, I will ensure the Department will redouble its efforts, if I can put it that way, to address this issue and to so do in consultation with the Oireachtas staff and this joint committee because that will help all of us and in particular, ultimately, the public.
