I welcome our guests. I suspect this may be our last rendezvous so I thank them for coming before us. I am not saying it has to be, but I suspect it may be our last meeting with them.

I will continue with Ulster Bank. I am sorry that all the questions seem to be directed towards Ms Howard and Ms Arnett. I am sure we will get to KBC in due course. Of the 126,000 accounts that Ulster Bank has frozen since last November, what is the quantification of the amounts held in those accounts?
