No problem. I want to ask about the material provided in the RTÉ briefing document at page 5. It states that total television trading revenue, including sponsorship, declined by 8.1% overall and a number of expected sponsorships did not materialise due to changes in the programme schedule and a number of delayed productions. What was the value of those expected sponsorships that did not materialise and what were the circumstances in which they did not materialise? For example, how much notice did they have? Why is it that RTÉ did not manage to get that revenue?
