Mr. Derek Moran:
On the day the Commission announced its decision, it actually suggested that the moneys be held by way of escrow. This is unprecedented. These are extraordinary amounts of money. Generally, when one is talking about state aid, one is talking about tens, 12s, 15s and 20s of million, not about €14 billion.
