In respect of proportionality and in terms of whether a discharge is given, does the Minister agree that the amount of money involved is highly relevant? Does he dispute the fact—I doubt that he will as I have the document here—that, with regard to irregularities in expenditure under the European agricultural guidance and guarantee fund, the total amount for 2004 was €82,064,000 and that on structural measures the amount was no less than €531,744,438 in the same year? Does he agree that that is a considerable sum for irregularities?
