Okay. I am seeking the breakdown for lots 1, 2 and 3 between capital costs and consultant fees for the €44.8 million, and the same with regard to Accenture and the €17.2 million. That is the first question.

Second, what overlap is there between Ernst & Young, the lot in respect of governance, finance and regulation, and lot 9 in respect of KPMG, which appears to be very similar although there is an obtuse use of language? There is an allocation of €2.2 million for KPMG to provide quality assurance services for the board and senior executives in lot 9.

Third, I thank the witness for giving us the additional breakdown of the €13.3 million. There appears to be approximately €4.2 million of legal costs. Are there any other legal costs inherent in lots 1 to 9 on top of that figure?

Fourth, what has happened to lot 7? Lot 7 is not mentioned here. Is there a reason for that? It could be that it is just a small amount, but perhaps the witness would clarify that.

Finally, have any of the service providers refused to give permission to release information on fees and costs, as opposed to not giving Irish Water an answer?
