Of course, and in the case of three of them it is specified that it is vouched. The other group is miscellaneous and one gets into all kinds of different things. The largest of them is the keyholder allowance, which comes to €520,809 a year and the franking machine allowance which comes to €319,321 a year. These are the big-ticket items and ones that are different. They are neither vouched nor do they fall into the category of a substitute payment for somebody moving into a different job.

Do any of these form part of the 88 allowances mentioned?
