Ms Oonagh McPhillips:
Applicants have to produce evidence of where they have been living and so on. It is quite detailed. We have quite a lot of Ukrainian temporary clerical officers in the operation. Our colleagues in the Department of Social Protection also benefit from that. They have the language and knowledge of the country. We have approximately 40 TCOs in that operation. It is very helpful to have that expert knowledge of the country.
