Yes. I referred to Irish Insurance Federation websites. It has been clarified that the insurance companies are happy to put the information on their websites. The Department's website is already receiving questions on the matter. In respect of the prescribed information, that will be general information about the insurance companies involved, who to contact and general details about the scheme. In addition, there is a question and answer section on the Department of Finance website which will give a fuller understanding of the scheme, where people can go, what they should do and so on. The issue is being adequately dealt with. The only point that might be made is that much more information could be put on a website. That is what I though the Senator wanted but, as I said this morning, that would pose its own difficulties.
