Okay. In the time remaining, I want to have a look at the EY report. In his opening statement, Dr. Gallagher stated that he accepts all of the recommendations and that he is happy. I think it is a good piece of work. He is accepting all of the recommendations.

Five of the detailed findings and recommendations, or five of the subheadings, from 2.1 to 2.5, inclusive, are to happen within three months. They are the zero-to-three-month findings and recommendations. Many of them involve the CEO. Dr. Gallagher finds himself in as deputy CEO. Has it been possible to progress these? These five should be completed at this point, if IFI was adhering to the timeline set out. How is it doing?
