Mr. Philip L'Estrange:

I can provide the numbers as of this month. Currently, we have sanction for a headcount of 140 permanent employees. We received an increase last December to hire a further 26, which are included in the 140. As such, we have already begun addressing the imbalance. At present, we have 149 outsourced placements.
