There has been no indication of the legal costs. The legal cost of the High Court case has not crystalised. The case is under appeal. The apportionment of costs is a matter for the courts. In the ordinary course of events costs of cases involving the State where costs are awarded again are charged, in the first instance, against the Vote of the Chief State Solicitor's Office who in turn recoups them from the client Department. Estimates of the cost are not to hand as again the case is under appeal. The question of contingent provision does not arise at this point.
