A little public information on this would be helpful.

I have two questions about Chapter 2 of this year's report. This is about the collection of pension contributions due to the Exchequer. It is extraordinary that, a couple of years on, we do not know who is in and who is out of the system. What was intended when the legislation was being drafted? There must have been a probable or an exact list of those who should be in the system. What happened? The legislation must have been drafted with some intent?
