Mr. Gerry Rooney:

From the point of view of PDFORRA's membership, there is probably a number of points. There is a certain exhaustion with reorganisation in it. Certainly since the mid-1990s, it is a continuous wave of reorganisation. That has created a certain dissatisfaction in reorganisation around that.

The other issue, obviously, is the modern day issues of people being unhappy in terms of their current financial position. Pay cuts have affected that. Also, people are affected by - a point to which Deputy O'Donnell has referred - perhaps a misunderstanding of the organisation in terms of the public and there has to be a continuous re-telling of the allowance system and why it would be paid. I suppose it does wear people down.
