The team is focused fully on the elimination of the backlog of claims in the shortest possible timeframe, concentrating, in the first instance, on those claims previously in payment but in respect of which payment has expired. The Deputy will understand the reason for this. While it is not possible to clear all claims immediately, we expect to have the backlog cleared substantially in the coming period.
