Ms Patricia Byron:
When we started out, litigation costs were 46% as established by the Motor Insurance Advisory Board, MIAB. Those are not our litigation costs. That has nothing to with us. We do not deal with litigation. A case that went to litigation ten years ago would have cost 46%. In the interim that has gone up to 58%.
