Catherine Murphy: I will move on as I will pursue that by way of a parliamentary question. On the legal services, there have been 24 separate firms involved between 2020 and 2022 where it cost just under €1 million. I received that information by way of a reply to a parliamentary question. Can IFI tell the committee how much has been spent from January 2022 to date to give us an idea? I know that...

Catherine Murphy: -----because I think that would be quite useful for us?
