I am confused by the difference in cash balances throughout the different offices. From reading the report, there seems to be a difference in the calculation. Will Ms O'Donoghue comment on this? How has the difference come about? I understood it was because of a difference in cash balances in a particular Intreo office and that the cash balance was different per system. There was supposed to be a per system figure of €122,000 in the office, but it was only €68,000. Is that correct?
