I do not need further expansion now that we have that information.

An extraordinary amount of money has been spent on legal fees. I fully accept IFI will prosecute people, including people who damage the environment. That is the nature of its job. In recent years, legal fees seem to have increased by approximately three times what IFI would normally spend on them. Why is that? Apart from the legal fees arising from prosecutions, on what other areas are legal fees being spent? There are two particular firms, ByrneWallace and Coakley Moriarty, both of which, I believe, are based in both Dublin and New York. What would they be used for?
