My view has not changed. It is very important that we make clear what the cost of the minimum mandatory insurance is, along with any additional costs. That is what we are currently developing. The Deputy talks about the timeline. We are guided by what the Central Bank will be able to do and prioritise. Certain issues have been prioritised accordingly. Their main involvement will be the national claims information database, which we want to have up and running next year. A number of actions need to be taken. These things do take time. The report has priorities on action deadlines.
