It goes back to the question that it should surely be relevant to their experience rather than moving them along on that band. I would have thought that should factor in.

I have one more question regarding bogus self-employment. I note the finding that 60% of cases investigated by the Department of Social Protection were found to be correctly categorised but it is concerning that 22%, so far, were incorrectly categorised. How much money has RTÉ incurred in costs defending cases of bogus self-employment where it was ultimately found to be in the wrong? If Mr. Bakhurst does not have time to answer now, perhaps we can take a written answer.
