Mr. Bernard Gloster:

I do not believe we will be to the same extent. There are going to be high earners, and I think I said in my opening statement that the base for counting high earners has traditionally been about €300,000-plus. The new consultant contract, if we apply that to an academic appointment, takes us up to that already. The number at €300,000, therefore, is going to change. To be fair to the Comptroller and Auditor General at this committee, the focus has tended to be on the ones over €500,000. There certainly are signs of that improving and there are a lot of reasons it might do, but the highest projected earnings we are seeing at this point in 2024 seem to be somewhere between €600,000 and €700,000, so it is a reducing phenomenon, if you like.
