I thank the Comptroller and Auditor General. On a minor point of clarification, referring to chapter 9, which deals with the farm assist and household benefits schemes, the Comptroller and Auditor General stated the farm assist survey "estimated a level of payments in excess of entitlement of 10.4% of the total amount in payment, which was €88 million in 2015."
