Mr. Niall Cody:

In my opening remarks I said that this case started back before our Revenue case-management system was developed.

The process will be supported by the Revenue case management system far more. That has all the documentation in it. In that period when the delay took place, there was significant engagement with counsel to seek a legal opinion. This was a highly technical issue.
