Mr. Tony O'Brien:

They have a specific section that is charged with determining on behalf of the State the appropriate rate to be paid. There is also an appeals mechanism and so on but the officials do that based on their assessment of the appropriate rate against a series of criteria, which often take into account the going rate in an area. There tends to be variation by geography.
