That is fine. I return to something that was said earlier on and regarding the whole employer representative, ER, side of things. I understand we have the figures but we need to give a health warning as regards ER, not related to the decisions but on the quantum. There is a huge number of claims that are outstanding. I think it is €600 and something odd million. I am only using sporting parlance by way of explanation but if an award was made by the conciliator of a nine-figure sum - in other words, the contractor won and the board lost - would that raise alarm bells in the Department?
