I thank the deputations for their presentations. I apologise for arriving late. I have some brief questions for the INOU. A high number of people in my constituency are facing sanctions from the Department of Social Protection relating to job activation programmes. Have members of the INOU experienced this? What experience have INOU members had of JobPath programmes? The organisation sees what is happening at first hand and may be able to provide some welcome feedback. The presentation from the INOU referred to moving from weekly to monthly welfare payments.
