Mr. Mark Griffin:

As pointed out in the Comptroller and Auditor General's report, the overall cost, when we factor in VAT and the Department's staffing costs, is €38 million. We have spent €21.85 million. A balance of €14.5 million could accrue over the period of the licence, on the basis of certain key performance indicators, KPIs, being achieved. There are service level agreements in place that set out the key performance indicators to be achieved and payments will be based on those. From the Department's perspective, there are no additional costs over and above the €38 million.
