Note No. 13, which we received, indicates that Waterways Ireland total revisions at the end of 2022, around contingent liability and provisions, were at about €11 million. That was an increase then again of €3.45 million on the provision of €7.56 million at the end of 2021. The increase equates to an additional provision of about €3.9 million. What was the reason for the substantial increase in provisions or settlements in 2023?
