Dr. Karina Doorley:

Yes. The Departments of Social Protection, Public Expenditure and Reform, Finance, Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth, and Health all have access to it. They all have active users within them and they regularly undertake pre-budget analysis using the model. Importantly, they have access to the model on the CSO server, so they are using the model without any input from us unless they need technical help or advice on how to model this or that. They access their results themselves, which guarantees budget secrecy. They can run their own analyses and communicate those to policymakers securely.
