Obviously, as that is in euro, there will always be currency fluctuations.
My final question is not a new question and I have asked it of Mr. Murphy before in various guises. It is not directly to do with his work but in regard to the EU and getting more Irish people working in the various institutions. I appreciate the court has had relative success, not just with the three witnesses as individual representations of it, but in terms of getting Irish people into the stageprogramme and into working in the court. I was wondering how the witnesses feed into the "team Ireland" strategy, which is being led by the Department of Foreign Affairs although it permeates through. There is increasing concern that we are about to hit a cliff edge of Irish people getting ready to retire from all of the institutions. How do we replace them in a number that will make sure we have that level of representation?
