I thank the officials for coming before the committee. I will not be keeping them long. Ms Conduit raising the issue with the UK situation and head 5 and how persons in the UK who receive a payment under head 5 may lose some of that because of the pension or social welfare rules there. Have there been any previous examples where our Department of Social Protection or the officials' Department have engaged with corresponding UK departments on an issue like this?
