Generally, going through the report, it is obviously not part of the Minister's obligation, but it would help in understanding what is going on if we had staff number metrics. There is none. The figure is in euro and one sees the number going up. Are there are extra staff? I know it is under the Ombudsman now. I looked through the report and could not see any evidence of increase in staff numbers but perhaps I missed that.
