Can I start by asking you about the testimony of Cyril Roux, the current deputy governor of the Central Bank? In his testimony in June, he highlighted that in the area of banking supervision there are 140 approved posts and 124 of those are currently filled - so a vacancy rate of in excess of 10%. So are staffing and vacancy rates discussed with the Governor, in your regular meetings, and are any steps being taken to overcome the problems identified where positions can't be filled?
