I think we did about seven. I always have these figures in my head and then I forget them.

I think we issued five reports in the last year. We usually have a larger number of cases that are not formal examinations, or inquiries, as they're formally called, because we receive a lot of information from people, the public, and members. The larger numbers are the ones that aren't informal examinations or inquiries, but then some of those become formal inquiry examinations.

I was looking at the figures earlier today and we get about 33 new files a year and we close about the same number a year.
