Mr. Niall Cody:

What we originally had in 2017 was a requirement for an additional 40 staff and in 2018 we looked for the big number of 600 staff. They are in place. We recruited people. Originally, there was a plan that it would be gradual but when it looked likely that there would be no deal on 31 March we recruited staff.
