Mr. Aonghus O'Connor:
The cost debate takes place separate to what we do in finance. That is a local, devolved matter. When the invoice is raised, that is when finance takes a hand in the process. There would be full compliance thereafter. Regarding trends, one could not say that there is any meaningful trend. There are people who have paid fully within weeks, there are people who have not paid until prompted and there are people who have not paid at all. As the figures set out, we have gone after people who have not paid and we are in that process with many of the people involved. To give context, we are talking about 300 lines-----
