What I was trying to establish is how much it costs to chase that 4%. If one were examining an aged debt, one would have to decide how much it would cost to chase that amount of money and it may be that perhaps it is not worth it. Did that type of analysis take place within the HSE? There is no point in asking Mr. McLoughlin that question because he will not tell me.
