Mr. Trichet, I want to ask you was there - and specifically in relation to liquidity and the collateral rules that were in force at the time - was there any request made by, or discussions with, members of the Government or the then Governor of the Central Bank, Mr. John Hurley, or any of his representatives in 2008 prior to the guarantee for additional or emergency funding from the ECB?
