Yes, that would be very useful. There are many issues around the word "compliance". I will raise a different type of compliance. The Comptroller and Auditor General has drawn our attention to a settlement of almost €1 million between the board and the Revenue Commissioners in regard to relevant contract tax. I want to explore how that occurred. Will Mr. Gunning clarify the figures we have that are related to nearly €1 million in transactions? The contract tax should have been withheld by the hospital board. Will Mr. Gunning explain how that came into being?
