Mr. Andrew Algeo:
Yes. In a twist, the good causes then fund advertising, such is the structure of lotteries. Yes, unclaimed prizes go to good causes and then the regulator decides how much of good causes funding does not go to good causes at all and is used for advertising instead. That figure in total related to about £160 million in the most recent figures.
