Mr. John Crawley:

The authority moved back into those premises about two years ago and had to refurbish the property at a cost of about €300,000 or €400,000. We were depreciating the refurbishment cost over about five years. We have speeded that up to completely write it off on the assumption that we are not sure as to what will happen the building post the wind-up of the authority. That is a fluid number. It is about €100,000 or €150,000.
