I thought the 30 prosecutions were prosecutions at large on matters they are in strife about. The point I am trying to ascertain is: how many, if any, of the 600—relate to people who have failed to comply with a summons and have then been charged with failure to comply with the summons? In other words, they have then suffered either a 200-unit penalty or a five-year term, as the case may be, and been prosecuted for failing to answer the question.
