Mr. Tony O'Brien:

Given that I do not have the full details, I am loth to speculate. It is important to stress that the argument being advanced is that these individuals are not receiving any additional public sector remuneration. Consequently, the process that is under way is simply seeking to establish the full facts in the matter. I am a little hesitant to say anything definitive until we have the full information.
