I will not take ten minutes, only three or four. The caveat to my questions is that the Secretary General and his colleagues have been exemplary in their presentation of the accounts and answering of questions. That is worth noting because it is not always the case. I am happy to put it on the record.

When I put my questions on JobPath, I understand that Mr. McKeon was not refusing to answer. I accept in good faith that he did not believe he was in a position to answer because of issues of commercial sensitivity. However, I have a concern about one of the questions that I put, in that the answer did not make sense to me. I will try to talk Mr. McKeon through why that is the case. For the purposes of clarity, I want him to know that my understanding is correct.

Between July 2015 and the end of September 2017, €71.2 million was spent funding the two organisations that enable JobPath. Is that not the correct figure?
