I will make the point about the Department investing money because it is my time. This is the Committee of the Public Accounts and we are here to make sure that there is value for money for the public coffers. When Mr. Gleeson says the Department has invested significant money in the SFPA, I appreciate that is what he thinks. However, from the public purse perspective, what we expect is a result. It seems that the only result we have got here is that we have exposed ourselves, after investing huge amounts of money, to either a reduction in our quotas and no prosecutions, which proves what the Commission stated today. Clearly, the SFPA is not doing its job. I will now move on. I just want to ask a question-----
