Members of this House have got free legal aid in the Circuit Court because their salary was not deemed adequate to meet the costs that can be incurred in the Circuit Court. One would want to be very wealthy not to get one's costs in the Circuit Court or free legal aid. Does Mr. Donoghue know how many people are not covered by free legal aid? Who would know the answer to that question?
