It is very difficult not only in terms of the numbers but in terms of the different grades. It can be quite different, so it is very hard to make an accurate assessment. Then there are different categories.
The categories are not only direct retirees but also people who are retiring for health reasons and need a preserved pension that suddenly becomes operable in a given year. All of these factors impact on the estimated cost of paying pensions.
