We're running out of time now, Senator. We're coming back in ... I just want to wrap up this. Just coming back to the question that Senator MacSharry asked you, there's another aspect to that as well in regard to your experience of the interaction with the international authorities during 2009 and 2010.

And how was Ireland perceived specifically internationally during that period?
