It has been reported that the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport has in some areas ceased using the card. From Ms Dixon's knowledge - I know she cannot speak about what she does not know - which Departments have changed their practice? She has given a direction. Are Departments still operating outside the law from her perspective? They might have a different perspective on the interpretation of the law, but Ms Dixon is the one who issued a report and a directive. Are there any Departments, in her view, still operating outside of the law in respect of the PSC and, if so, which Departments?
