My Department is studying the Supreme Court judgment in detail and will take on board all the consequences for policy and law arising from the judgement.
The details of a repayment scheme to address the situation following the Supreme Court decision are currently being finalised and it is only following this that it would be possible to calculate the money owed by specific area.
