Mr. Stephen Mulvany:

Broadly speaking yes, there has been an increase in management and administration of the order the Deputy is talking about. Back in 2019 it was approximately €32 million.

Extrapolating for last year, it is approximately €80 million, so there has been a substantial increase. It comes down to what we mean by management and administration, who those people are and what they do.
