Mr. Hugh Hume:

That 16 to 20 weeks refers to the unsupervised investigations to be passed back to us. There are a number of cases from the 4 July period we discussed where the dispute was notified to us and with regard to which we have written escalation letters to senior management in the guards saying the timelines have not been met. I do not have a figure. The cases we talked about earlier were existing on 4 July and are still subject.
