Okay. Just my last question, Mr. Cowen. In terms of contrarian views by public or civil servants, and I'm specifically talking about in July 2007, then Taoiseach, Bertie Ahern, had an infamous comment about suicide in relation to people moaning and cribbing about the property sector. Could I ask your view about anybody within the public sector who may have a contrarian view, would it be likely or less likely to come forward and express their contrarian view when the Taoiseach of the country was speaking in those terms?
