I thank the Minister of State. I welcome the last part of his answer, which states that the new Bill will address the contribution system. This is a matter I have raised, along with means testing and increased sanctions for false declarations. By all means, it should be given if the accused is totally penniless or whatever. However, it should not be given in many cases. I look forward to the publication of the general scheme.
