Mr. Niall Cody:

The penalties are imposed by the courts and depending on the level involved, the case will either go to the Circuit Court or the High Court.

The appeal system has regard to issues around tax liability. The nature of the tax liability is subject to appeal to the Appeal Commissioners. I mentioned earlier in the context of medical consultants that we have 84 open appeals on aspects of the settlements that we are looking at.
