Mr. John Conlan:

No, not necessarily. The only thing we have outsourced relates to us having taken on the HSE contact tracers in Limerick. We took them on based on a specific fixed term. It is a 20- or 26-week contract. They worked for us for that period. It is just that we needed capacity. We were struggling with recruitment.
