Ms Mary Higgins:

We are still receiving applications and part of what we will do in the next year is make a significant effort to try to reach people who have not come to us yet. We will then have to set a closing date beyond which people will be unable to apply. That will help to bring people to us also. People have made initial applications and think they will come back at some point in the future. They need to know that there is a closing date. That will help to bring them to us also.
