I wish Mr. Begg well in his role. It is a very challenging, interesting and brilliant role. As he said, one of the greatest challenges is that pensions will not meet the costs of growing old. We are not dying of cancer and disease so much but of old age, and we are getting older. This is the major challenge, as I have learned here politically over the past five years. I wish Mr. Begg much luck and thank him for answering my questions, although they might have been more creative than others.
