I thank all the witnesses for their participation so far. I will start with the Road Safety Authority. What happened in 2024 in the authority that the Department essentially had to give it a chunk of money because it was in deficit? The Department then made leeways in respect of the authority's waiver. What went on? It is a huge amount of money. The Department had to bail out the authority for €7.6 million. What went wrong there?
