Does all that money go into a central fund or is there another fund? Mr. O'Driscoll can help us. There is a simple question: €1.2 billion in payments is going through the Department which are not part of the account but is included under section 6, "miscellaneous", on page 26 of the Vote of the Department under EU funding by way of a note. It is not the record of the accounts, it is not the audit and I would like that account to be sent to the committee during the week. Mr. O'Driscoll can understand our question as to why those payments are not part of today's discussions. Will Mr. O'Driscoll help us on this point before we discuss his Department?
