It is very difficult. There is an argument, which has not been said here for balance, that if GM is taken on board, it should reduce the amount of pesticides we apply. That is why I said that it would have been interesting to hear the opinion of the Pesticides Registration and Control Division on that because it is the expert on it. It is a very emotive and interesting topic. I am pleased the witnesses presented today and I thank them.
