It was a question on staffing in Revenue. There is a staffing mix. There is the equivalent of 130 full-time posts in temporary staff on top of those figures. There was outsourcing of the call centres in the property tax arrangements, so the Deputy is getting the net full-time staff figures but there are temporary and outsourced staff in addition to that. There is a trade-off between the movement toward better IT systems and the necessity for staff. That is also in the mix.
