My next question would have been whether there were levels of spending on these credit cards that warranted procurement.

The only concern I have is that there were 53 credit cards in 2020 with a €148,000 spend and when the number of credit cards reduced all the way down to 17 in 2024, there was still over €100,000 spent on them. That indicates that the concentration of spend on those 17 cards was much higher. On what basis are the three cards remaining used for today?
