The stabilisation and protection of the building, in so far as we are allowed to do it under the court ruling, cost €2.9 million. There was much money spent on securing the building. There was also an illegal occupation of the building by protestors and the bill for that was quite high. It is all about restoring this building to where it was in 2016. We were able to carry out some essential stabilisation works in agreement with the court ruling and that came to €2.9 million.
