Can I ask the CFO a general question on the diversionary route. I call it the diversionary route because that it what it was, diversionary. The purpose was to hide payments. One thing that struck me was the actual cost of these barter accounts. In order to move €30,000 to sponsor the events for Renault it cost more than €47,000. Paying €150,000 to Ryan Tubridy cost €230,000. You were aware of these. Were you aware of the actual level of fees that were being charged on the barter accounts?
