Ms Josephine Feehily:

We are happy to include them, provided we have evidence. However, if somebody has it in his or her head to pay in the post office next October, we do not know that. If somebody is paying weekly or monthly through a service provider, that is clear to us. Therefore, the people concerned are compliant.
