Mr. Niall Cody:

Yes, but first we looked at it and identified those cases that had rental income in excess of €30,000. We are reviewing them and they are subject to interventions. For the 12,000 other people, we wrote to them and said we understood they were in receipt of rental income, and outlined the rules and how the money could be returned. That project will be evaluated as the returns are filed, and we will report on it.
