The policy for this is with the Departments of Justice and Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth as to what actions to take. That will be decided by Government. In the Department of Social Protection, we make the necessary payments to the various recipients, whether it is the full payment or the €38.80. Policy for that will be decided by Government. The Minister for Justice spoke to our EU colleagues last week. We are very conscious of that and Government will make a decision on the matter in due course.
