We just have a breakdown of the Department and the number of days lost. There is no caveat given here to the effect that there could be variations because of gender where, for example, there is maternity leave and I accept that. There is no caveat for a higher age profile. That might have an impact. I am saying we did not get that information, so I think it is fair enough for the Accounting Officer to point that out. Can we go back and get that information from each Department? Then we can see whether or not there is still a problem. Can we do that?
