Regarding the 23,500 people who got the interim payment, obviously at the time they got that payment they were advised by letter that if their scores were different, there was a difference or shortfall or whatever it was, money would be listed as a debt and it would come off future payments. How is that going to work in respect of recoupment? Does the Department know how many of those 23,500 people who got the interim payment got more than they should have and will have a repayment to make?
