I want to come back to Deputy Casey's question on the pension issue. The issues being looked at are about how the recognised entitlements can be honoured. That is what we are examining at present. These are entitlements that exist and need to be honoured. They might require an amendment to the Ervia pension scheme, which would come to me as Minister to formally sign off. When I said to Deputy O'Dowd that we are looking at a legal issue, it is to see exactly how we do this in the appropriate way because it needs to be done.
