Mr. Niall Cody:

A compliance intervention on research and development will generally be in respect of a separate company. There may be reasons for having a number of interventions regarding the same company. Some companies have streams of research and development. We might be looking at one aspect in a particular stream, while in another year we might be looking at another research and development claim.
