Before I go back to the witnesses, I have one brief question regarding new entrants and those who may have come into the dairy sector from a different sector in recent years, be it tillage or the beef sector. Do the banks have a breakdown of those numbers? What have been their credit requirements? Have they been for extra stock or infrastructure? Do the witnesses have those figures?

I now call on Mr. Crowley, who is the facilitator.
