Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. If the Director of Public Prosecutions fails to initiate proceedings under section 152 of the Proceeds of Crime Act to recover such profits from Hicks, will the Attorney-General exercise his power under section 8 of the Director of Public Prosecutions Act to direct the Director of Public Prosecutions to bring an application to recover them?
