Last week's, Thursday. We had a meeting at 9.30 a.m. I questioned Mr. Forde, "The expansion of the loan book of AIB for property and construction averaged 29% per annum, and that was in the sector that you were in charge of. Would you have considered your growth in that sector reckless?" His response is, "No. I didn't then." I questioned, "Do you now?" Mr. Forde says, "Yes, in hindsight ... reckless is a strong word." Thank you very much.
