Mr. Hogan mentioned that he feels it would not be appropriate for him to cite a cost associated with the work his Department has been undertaking for the past 18 months in the recoupment of the award - actually, I should say "the decision" - of the Commission. I accept that, but he can tell me how many personnel are assigned to this matter and whether they are working whole-time on it, approximately how many hours have been assigned to this per individual or in totality - days or weeks would be fine - and how many outside State agencies or private companies has the Department engaged in the process of the establishment of the escrow, the money managers, the custodians, etc.
