Coincidentally, as a result of the State Claims Agency's earlier visits, I asked the Department of Justice and Equality - I can share the PQs - all the agencies under the aegis of various Departments that had powers to take prosecutions, such as the EPA and the fisheries boards. I asked for the number of prosecutions taken by each of the agencies. The agencies all got back to me in letter form and I have a large file of cases the different State agencies have taken. Some of them are for a lot less that one would have expected. I will see about forwarding that file to the committee. It is useful information that I extracted before the summer, Department by Department. It was a slow process and I have a file built up on it.
