On the Deputy's final comment, not to be disrespectful to the survivors from the Magdalen laundries - I think I have had this conversation here before - I hate the term "customers". We do not have customers but we also do not only serve citizens because there are many people who are not Irish citizens that we do not serve. Perhaps we can collectively come up with an appropriate term. I desperately try to call people recipients but in doing so I often feel as if I am speaking about robots. For what it is worth, I agree with Deputy Collins.
