To counter this, I listen to the views that people have. When we are looking at cost containment, for some it might not be welcome. In some instances the cases taken can be paid for and the fees can be lucrative for some businesses. I understand that. We want to be fair and we will be fair. It is right and correct that, as a Government, we manage the resources of the State appropriately. We will certainly listen when the scheme comes up for review. It is important to note the review of civil justice identified Ireland as having very high legal costs. Most people recognise that.
