I thank Mr. Cody. I want to move around some of the areas we are going to cover this morning. I want to discuss the suspicious transaction reports, STRs. I note there is a very low level of additional tax relative to the number of reports that Revenue gets, but we do not know if, following a Revenue audit, something further and substantial would be gathered as a consequence. How do suspicious transaction reports arise? How are they notified to Revenue? What is the means of notification?
