Mr. Aidan O'Driscoll:

Yes. It is difficult to say whether we are confident. There has definitely been a difficulty in the transition to the shared services system. The number of overpayments rose significantly in the transfer. I do not think that is a huge surprise. The new system is taking a while to bed down but there is an interdepartmental group working on it and there is a plan in place to tackle the overpayments. What has been done is that some of the overpayments have been allocated to the Department itself to be pursued. There are recoupment plans in place at the moment for €306,000. The total overpayment figure, as I understand it, for the end of 2016 is €508,000, but recoupment plans are in place for 97 cases totalling €306,000. The Department is pursuing 102 cases for a further €180,000 and PeoplePoint is pursuing 162 cases for €21,000. The answer to the question is, yes, plans are in place.
