I am sorry to interrupt but I do not have the luxury of time. Mr. McKeon referred to 9,000 cases. Was there a strong mixture of multiple reasons for stopping those claims? I suppose there were some people moving to other jurisdictions to live or did it have more to do with holidays? Will Mr. McKeon give us an insight into the figure of 9,000 cases?
