What I am saying is that those contractors' claims are being submitted on an ongoing basis. Mr. Barry said that currently approximately 50% of those claims have been processed. Most of them were the smaller claims. The other 50% of claims are outstanding and further claims will be submitted over the next three years and beyond. In that context, how can he say that there is a GMP when contractors' claims are being submitted on an ongoing basis and will be for years to come? He said recently it could be 2024 or later before the final accounts are ready and we know what is what.
