That is what I am trying to get at. I acknowledge that there have been some shifts which have had a positive impact. We would not be here today to discuss this Bill if the banks were doing what they are meant to do and if the Central Bank was doing what it is meant to do in line with its consumer protection role. I find it quite amazing that the Central Bank is refusing extra powers, or does not want extra powers. I will ask representatives of the Central Bank questions about that matter when they come in.
