Mr. John McKeon:
We have not looked at them separately as a group. Most of the PPSNs have been issued for people coming to Ireland to work and for their immediate families, including children, spouses and partners. They are people coming to Ireland to work and their families. I suspect the number is quite low. We have not looked at the PPSNs separately to identify whether there is a social welfare spend associated with them.
