We will write to the State Claims Agency to seek that information. Ms McCaffrey has mentioned that there are more than 1,600 cases. When representatives of the State Claims Agency were in here recently, they had a list of mass actions. I do not think they are called "class actions" in Ireland. Given that payments are already being made to people, has the principle been conceded in most of these cases?
