Thank you, Chairman. Briefly, for both of you, was there a discussion at Cabinet prior to the guarantee of the figures from the Department of Finance that showed that the country had gone officially into recession which became known, I think, to the Department from 25 or 24 September? Was that discussed at that Sunday meeting or at any other meeting?
