Ms Siobhán O'Donoghue:
I am aware from dealing with complaints the legislation is not set up for those transfers. We get people with a slightly different issue, especially in Dublin, where they can be in one local authority and have areas of choice in other areas. People often can be confused. They may have lived all their life in Fingal, but it turns out that they applied in Dublin city.
