I welcome both of the chief executives. It is their first time here and it is good to see them. I am not sure why they were asked in together, to be honest. That is one of the mysteries of the way the Civil Service works.

I will start with the chief executive of Enterprise Ireland. The story, which both people tell, is always a very good story about jobs created. Can Ms Sinnamon tell me what the number of jobs lost in client companies was for last year and the year before?
