Ms Marie-Claire Maney:

Yes, I do. We have received 9,073 appeals that were either transferred or we have come into since 2016. We have closed 7,375 appeals. We are down to 2,900 appeals of worth. The closures are worth €2.7 billion. The Deputy can do the maths. The current figure is 2,874. Many thousands of cases have been dealt with and closed. We all get confused with the figures. I get confused, so I do not know how on earth-----
