I am answering the question, if the Deputy will allow me the opportunity. We have had different problems over the last number of years. We are addressing all of those problems. What happened this year is that there were a couple of internal problems earlier this year, which have now been sorted out and about which I would hope the Deputy is aware. We had over 120 applications for different licenses that were held up. Every one of those licenses has now been addressed, sanctioned and issued. Some of them might still not have gone through the process, but they are being worked on because no more than any other application, there could have been difficulties with them.

However, the vast majority of them are worked through and gone through. I thought the Deputy would have known that.
