My final question concerns the storing of information on smart cards, although I am not sure whether it comes under this package. I note that across Europe there has been a move to try to put more and more information on cards, for example, health identification, social security information and so forth. Are there guidelines on not having too much information on one card, for example, having all social security and health information on one card? What is Mr. Hawkes' view?
