Okay. Well, I'm talking about the relationship between the ECB and the Commission in addressing Ireland. So we have it in evidence from Mr. Cardiff that in September, when the ECB became aware of the funding cliff... the bank funding cliff, that the president of the ECB phoned the Department of Finance and spoke to the Minister and demanded that the Commission be allowed go to Ireland to see what was happening and what we were doing ahead of this challenge. So, would that be unusual for the ECB to be making those kinds of requests or demands for the Commission to do work?
