Mr. John McMahon:
No, there was a multiplicity of suppliers. There was a subcontracting arrangement relating to those that were provided by Actavo. It engaged more than 60 subcontractors that were working under the Actavo umbrella but that would have engaged by Actavo. There were about 330 individual contractors working on the events. While the headline figures might seem very high, with Actavo at over €5 million beneath that, a large number of subcontractors were engaged by Actavo.
