That is €16.4 million. Is that amount clearly audited? If so, €3.6 million would be open...

General Report No. 85 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Accountability and Governance on the National College of Art and Design (22 Jan 2015) John Perry: I know, but I come from a business background and have done a quick calculation using the 82% figure. Professor McGonagle might tell me a bit about the college, for example, its number of students. I visited it as a Minister of State and saw the level of entrepreneurship and start-ups.
