Your Honours, Charles Jalloh, Legal Officer and Duty Counsel for the Office of the Principal Defender. Thank you.

Your Honour, we are cross-checking. There is work to be done still in terms of the review and we are honestly engaged upon that. But basically we did not remove any materials. We handed over everything to the new team. What we wanted to do was to sort it and ...

Your Honour, we have a good chunk of the disclosure, in the neighbourhood of perhaps 80 to 90 per cent, that is contained in the cupboards. That has been passed over, I mean access and custody to --
