We are happy with that. The figure jumps out at me. Perhaps somebody was charged with not paying insurance and handed the money to the Garda to pay over. It appears in the accounts every year but it is unusual. It is listed under income received by An Garda Síochána. The Garda might revert to us with a note in that regard.

Does the Garda provide escorts for the movement of cash between banks? There was a time when the Garda was paid a great deal of money, although perhaps it does not do it anymore. Who carries out that task now? Is it the Garda?
