I will move on as I will pursue that by way of a parliamentary question.
On the legal services, there have been 24 separate firms involved between 2020 and 2022 where it cost just under €1 million. I received that information by way of a reply to a parliamentary question. Can IFI tell the committee how much has been spent from January 2022 to date to give us an idea? I know that some of these moneys relate to court cases and in bringing issues to a point where they can go to court and are then withdrawn. A cost is associated with that. Can IFI give us an indication, please, of how much the organisation has spent from 2022 to date?
