I have several questions, so I ask that our guests provide very quick responses. The best claim is one that can be avoided. I strongly endorse the comments of Deputy Carroll MacNeill in respect of addressing this issue in private session. We really need to get to a point at which damage can be limited. We have done that, for example, in respect of the State Claims Agency, in the context of which we have been through this kind of engagement where, for example, claims for slips and falls and those kinds of things in some sectors have been reduced. We have had good information on that. However, this is an area that we do not have the same level of transparency in terms of the mitigation of potential damage.

Who are the investment managers of the escrow fund and the Ireland Strategic Investment Fund?
