I think those were the groups that were mentioned, but we might still look for further submissions.

Considering the advice in 2012 that we should put what was proposed into primary legislation, would the Department be able to furnish the committee with information on cases that have been taken or challenges, particularly those that have been upheld? I appreciate that Mr. Kelly might not have it to hand. However, it would help to inform what we are trying to do here and decisions on how we can amend or improve what is proposed in the general scheme.

On the appeals process, Threshold stated in its submission that if the habitual residency condition from the Social Welfare Act were to be adopted, as has been suggested, there would be an appeals process within that. Does Mr. Kelly believe there should be an appeals process and what body would be best placed to be the appeals body? Has this been thought through yet?
