Okay. I just want to wrap up with a couple of matters there and to say you were in a similar kind of area with Deputy Murphy a few moments ago. I'll maybe just put the question to you. I know you came in in 2009. You came in after the banking guarantee had actually been put in place but you were dealing with the legacy issue of it in your capacity as an adviser. So maybe if I could start by putting the question to you, did the structure and design of the banking guarantee along with its period of duration - which was two years, the way that it was actually set up - have any bearing on the Irish State entering a bailout programme two years and two months later, after it had been put in place?
