Dr. Fergal Lynch:
I do not have that figure in front of me. The result for last year was the figure of €4.7 million to which I referred. Sorry, I do have a figure in front of me. In terms of overall over-claim, the €4.7 million represented approximately 2.2% of the contract value. There were €433 million payments, and the estimated over-claim that would emerge if we did not get it back - but we will - of €4.7 million represents 2.2%. Non-compliance is higher in the problem schemes, namely, the CCS and the CCSP, and that is where compliance visits are focused.
