There are a couple of things. Regarding the Apple escrow fund, the Advocate General came down on the side of the Commission and we are waiting to see if that is upheld in court. Some funds could be claimed by other jurisdictions. Presumably, the Department has started to plan in case that happens. I presume it would go from an escrow account to another type of account, if that happens. Will Mr. Hogan confirm the mechanism the Department is likely to use?
