I will go back to the point I made to the Deputy earlier. I think these two points can coexist beside each other. There can be people who are on an income of €70,000, which is a very high level of income in comparison with somebody who is on €25,000 or €30,000. They are at the higher end of the income ladder in our State as defined by the statistics that I am sure will be available to us. However, their actual discretionary income at the end of that can still be low.
