All persons featured in this video work are educational professionals and participated on a voluntary basis.

The only payments received by participants were their travel expenses (for participating in the production which took place in Dublin), all of which have been vouched.

The video piece concludes with a professional voice-over who directs viewers to a government website to find out more information. This voice-over artist was paid according to industry rates for his services, as is normal practice.
