Before we move onto the next question, the point about the difficulty of getting family lawyers into the District Court goes back to the system of civil legal aid. It is a topic that the committee intends to examine over the course of this year. There are a number of anomalies in the current system with regard to how lawyers, particularly in the District Court and Family Court, are remunerated. We will have to look at that.
