I am talking about an objective we all want to achieve, which is a better system in which people can have faith. We should have a system that collects the revenue that should be collected for the State and imposes the penalty on the individuals for the law they have broken. However, we need to see how we get there or else we could be here in 12 months still with 2,000 statute-barred cases even though we wanted to reach zero. Then I would be asking why we are only at 2,000.
