There is one thing I do not get from what I have been hearing so far. It has been said that of the 317 outstanding cases, 95% or thereabouts are first-time applicants. Caranua has made payments to about approximately 6,000 people. I see in the annual report how Caranua has made payments of €11,500 to survivors to date. This means that on average, 6,000 people got two payments. Obviously, some got one payment while others got three or four. Could the witnesses explain these figures?
