I can quote the Department of Employment Affairs and Social Protection data on the number of people in the Defence Forces in receipt of the working family payment. As I said, the submission to the independent pay commission was data led and it involved a huge job of work over the last number of works. It was submitted in early September and it is hoped the commission's report and recommendations can be brought to Government by the first quarter of 2019.
