Mr. Patrick Kenny:

It is important to focus on the issue of leniency. In the civil area, when we speak to the legal advisers of companies about the cartel immunity programme we run with the DPP they tell us that there is not sufficient legal certainty to bring anything to our attention at the moment. With the leniency programme we will be able to get much more work through the door. When we have companies assisting us in our investigations we will get through more investigations, and when there is a fine at the end of the process it will serve as a bigger deterrent. That is critical.
