Mr. Paul Quinn:
Yes. Prior to the issue of the guidance advice, if in the past one were to pick up a tender that would have included professional indemnity and product liability insurance the person concerned might have had to deal with extraordinary values. We have brought the values down and this has been welcomed by bodies such as IBEC because previously firms were being asked to procure ridiculous levels of insurance.
