Ms Niamh O'Donoghue:
In terms of the attachment to social welfare payments, this comes down to the number of attachment orders that we have to facilitate. It is very hard to make a guesstimate of the figure but we will obviously keep an eye on the issue. If it represented a very significant body of work for us, we would have to make a case about that.
