Mr. Ciaran Breen:
Yes. To give an example of a case I handled myself, it is now two and a half years beyond the date we agreed the initial settlement, but the costs have yet to be resolved, because they have been to taxation on at least two occasions and have been adjourned. This process can lengthen the period of time considerably if one looks at it from date of claim to date of ultimate resolution.
