Mr. McCarthy might revert to the committee on the matter. I remember research being done on the projects with which I was involved. For example, we found that five years after we had these people in training, more than 70% were in full-time employment. I am concerned about whether we should be doing research in respect of these projects in order to see where we can provide improvements and better value for money. Technically, this project costs approximately €500,000 per detainee per annum. Does Mr. McCarthy agree with that?
