I wanted to ask Ms Feehily about prosecutions anyway, because I was looking at Revenue's annual report, which includes lots of cases of prosecutions. I do not think I have had the opportunity to ask the Chairman this before now and while it is somewhat historic, a fair number of prosecutions are under way at present. How does Revenue make decisions of this sort? For instance, historically, as far as I am aware there were no prosecutions in the Ansbacher cases. Why not?
