I only have the distributions here. I don't know how much we will be raising, but what I will do is get that for the member. The distributions are here. In regional area 4, we are distributing $217.7 million; in regional area 1, $18.5 million; in regional area 2, $10.7 million; in regional area 3, $0.9 million, of which expenditure on emergency services is attributable to the fixed property component of the levy, and the distributions are out there. What I will do is I will get you a much more detailed answer so we know exactly what it is we are raising from those regional areas and so you can see exactly what it is.
