I will need to take that entire set of questions on notice. I don't have that information readily to hand. What I am advised is that, as I said earlier, the Department of Home Affairs assessed the facts for each of the people who may have been affected by this decision. The result of that assessment led to the release of 83 people in addition to the one plaintiff. The remaining eight, I think it is, of the original 92 have been fully assessed and determined to not meet that test, or those assessments are underway.
