That is where my problem is with the Departments in general. People have a right to their identity and it is something that we could even have been ashamed of for many years. It is the system that we are in that says that actually a person's identity does not matter and we see it now with the Department. For me, that is an argument for another day. I thank Ms Hurley for trying to understand where I am coming from.
