Mr. Gerry D'Arcy:
This is a reimbursement. It is an estimate of the reimbursement of expenses which the director must pay because he has decided he is not in a position to relocate to Ireland. His permanent private residence is in the United Kingdom. On that basis the board decided that it had no wish to discriminate in any way against a person from abroad taking up a position compared to an Irish resident.
