In theory, if it has this money the State may have to give it back. If it does not have it, the State is sitting on the guts of €3.67 billion, which is potentially available or not available to the State. It is a very significant amount of money given that we refer to other figures of €100 million or €200 million of fiscal space here or there. I thank Mr. O'Mahony for knowing that figure and for giving it to the committee. Is there a split in terms of value, for example 80:20 of cases with very small value? Is there a breakdown and what is the biggest appeal?
