I propose to take Questions Nos. 809, 810 and 811 together. The questions seek statistical information on the work of the Social Welfare Appeals Office. I am advised by the Social welfare Appeals Officer that the statistics requested by the Deputy in respect of 2007, 2008 are available in the annual reports of that Office for the relevant years. The statistics in respect of 2009 are being compiled at present for inclusion in the 2009 annual report and there are no statistics available for 2010.
