Perhaps I am being unfair and it is not Mr. McDaid's role and I should direct these matters to the other speakers. To have a healthy, functioning democracy, we need efficient access to the courts so that justice can be administered and be seen to be administered. There are delays with many causes, including the absence of judges and insufficient barristers and legal staff. Fundamentally, the costs also determine who gets access to the court and who does not. I have focused on the Legal Aid Board but it clearly does not have that role, or is not using that role, which must be filled somewhere else as it was by Ms Airey and the legal team who had the courage to take the case with her in 1979.

I will come back to Ms Barry. Is FLAC 50 = this year?
