The rest of my letter which I issued went on to highlight that, in the context of a no-deal scenario, we said that we would need 600 this year and we would deliver 400 by the end of March, with the other 200 to be delivered across the rest of the year. We would obviously look to deliver it early in the year. I confirm to the committee that the deadlines and timings of those figures will be delivered. The letter that I sent to Deputy Michael McGrath was open in answering the question which he put to me in the Dáil regarding how many are in place. The letter goes on to state that we will have in place the 400 we said we would have in place by the end of March. If further resources or commitments are needed from me for those deadlines to be met by the Revenue Commissioners, I will supply them.
