Okay, but it still does not seem sound. If I were a commercial manager in business, it would not sound right to me. It sounds like just getting rid of it and moving on. It was not value for money.

I wish to ask a question about obsolete stock and the reduced weight by €2 million to €4.9 million. What is obsolete stock? Is Mr. Quinn talking about armour, uniforms, vehicles or ammunition? What was written off involving that kind of money?
