I had questions for the Department but the representatives do not appear to be present. I will go back to Mr. Gunning. He will recall that in December 2019, the estimated cost was provided at €1.43 billion. What is the sum total of the costs that have been incurred to date that were not included in that estimate? I am talking about costs related to inflation, settled claims, legal costs and any other costs that were not envisaged at that stage. What is the sum total to date, please?
