I might add one point to that. It would be ironic if matters were to develop such that countries outside of the European Union were able to benefit from a continuity of supply to a greater extent than a country inside the European Union. We need to have that as our headline and goal. By all means, we should supply whatever is required, but in the pecking order we have to supply those within the European Union first, and thereafter we can supply whatever else we can supply. We should not leave shortages at home while supplying other jurisdictions.
