And this brings me to my final question, Mr. Considine. The ... what ... what we do know is that there were a lot of external reports by the IMF, the OECD and all the rest. These are all reports about you, about us. These are external reports talking about the state of our house. You're using the language and the vocabulary of a sort landing ... a soft landing and you're referencing the content of their reports with our external analysis of us. Did you carry out any analysis in the Department of Finance with regard to modelling, examining, stress testing and actualising the reality that there would be a soft landing when there was the inevitable downturn that was being projected or identified in the financial stability reports and all the rest?
