Thank you, a Chathaoirligh, agus fáilte chuig an coiste fiosrúcháin. Can I begin by asking in relation to the Bank of Ireland strategy 2004 to 2009? The earnings per share and the profit before tax targets 15% plus growth per annum, which might appear ambitious in a relatively mature market. What was your view on this and did this lead to going into areas of higher risk?
