Mr. Seamus McCarthy:

That is perfectly reasonable. Part of the reason for compiling the report is that there is no single place where one can get an overview of our transactions with the EU. I felt it might be useful to present such information as a framework. There is a set of financial statements co-ordinated by the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine, the FEOGA accounts. I believe the committee has looked at these on previous occasions. To be quite honest, they do not give that much useful information. I was trying to suggest an alternative presentation that might be more useful and of more value to the public.
