Mr. Brendan Rogers:

We have not taken any major decision as a result of fraudulent activities but we constantly analyse our own thought processes. For example, budget support was very important a few years ago when taxation revenues and remittances in Africa were very low. However, government systems are much improved now compared to when I started in this business 20 years ago. Taxation revenues are coming in and governments have capacity. As a result we have to slightly change the way we do business and look at how to do business differently. The new policy, One World, One Future, was published last year and it examines those areas.
