Ms Margrethe Vestager:

Sometimes one wishes one was able to control everything. Unfortunately, we are not. In my experience most things are a combination of what one wishes to do and coincidences. We found that we were not done before the summer. There was also a lot of back and forth to make sure that the fine detail was as it should be. We finalised it over the summer and therefore took the decision just after the summer break.
