Our time is short so I would appreciate succinct replies. I refer to the Convention Centre Dublin. It is not a place I want to go back to. We are happy to be here. We were happy to be accommodated at the time but I do not have fond memories of it.

As the Comptroller and Auditor General's report states, the Covid-19 pandemic was an unforeseen event. It also states that under the terms of the public private partnership agreement, there is provision for a modest reduction in the unitary charge payments when the number of international delegates falls below a minimum standard. I have a particular interest in one area, which is the bonuses paid in 2017, 2018 and 2019. Quite a substantial amount, totalling several hundred thousand, was paid. Was that paid to all eight directors? Was it equally shared?
