Mr. John Crawley:

Those assets are broken up into two categories. We acquired some for public area development and infrastructure purposes. These are sites that we acquired, typically along the Campshires and the River Liffey. From time to time, the authority acquired properties that it effectively expensed, in that it was buying them to knock them. However, this will not now happen to one asset that is on our books. The circumstances have changed.
