Absolutely. That is what we are here for, but it takes a little while to gain a proper understanding. On paper, there seems to be a very good scheme in place under the Legal Aid Board, but it is limited. The uptake is limited. We have some data for 2017 and 2018, but we do not have figures for earlier years as there has been no review of the scheme by the Department.
