I can answer that question. The communications contract also includes the web restructuring. It incorporated a member of staff because we do not have a full-time communications person, which we needed for a period of four months, and an annual retainer. The amounts budgeted for have been in the region of €300,000 for last year. That is the public relations spend. It is now considerably reduced because we do not have the staff member there and the web project will be coming to a conclusion at the end of October.
