We are both right and wrong. Deputy Burton is talking accountancy while I am talking money. The capital sum is already paid for general government balance, GGB, purposes. That is why there is a spike in the GGB this year. The interest will be factored into the GGB next year, although the amount actually paid next year will not reflect that.
