Journalist: Erm, last question, I think, a lot of people would say that quite a lot of money has been made from Madeleine’s disappearance and various court cases. How much has been made and has this been used in legal [incoherent] we’ve seen in Portugal?
Clarence Mitchell: The fund is there to assist Kate and Gerry in whatever way necessary, there are a number of other backers as well outside the fund who also assist at times, erm, the bulk, in fact all of the public money that came in at the early stages was all spent entirely properly on the search for Madeleine, on the investigative costs and everything else around that, erm, most of the monies that are still in the fund now are actually there from either the settlements against the Express Group Newspapers and other media outlets that has also defamed them, and so that is money that was, if you like, brought in through court action not the public, and on top of that the most recent monies that have come in are through supporters kindly donating at a fund raising event and again they will be more than happy as supporters to see the money spent in any way that assists Kate and Gerry and the wider family and their investigators in the search for Madeleine.
