Mr. Robert Watt:
I presume that would have been pursued if the directors were in situor if there were any assets in the entity. Obviously, if one has a lead on the assets, one tries to pursue them. I guess in this case the fact it was dissolved means there is not a legal entity we could pursue. We will come back to the Deputy on it. I know it is something we do not take lightly. When it came to our attention, we had discussions with our colleagues in the Department of Finance and Personnel in Northern Ireland and the matter was referred to the police authorities and the prosecution service of Northern Ireland.
