I am talking about what is happening on the site. There is a situation where the company or companies are in receipt of those subsidies for the period they are off the site, and they are claiming for the period they are off the site because they are carrying a loss. We have a situation where two months were lost, for which we have not got a clear explanation, and they then came back on-site, and the taxpayer finds itself facing claims as a result of this loss and the subsequent consequence of price inflation. The taxpayer is being hit twice. Does Mr. Gunning understand that?
