Ms Ann Nolan:
We cannot project the dividend because the dividend is a function of how much profit it makes but also its agreement with the SSM - the ECB. So it must clear it. It is for the board, which is independent. If the Deputy is asking me what I am hoping for, I would hope it would pay a bigger dividend next year in view of the fact that last year was the first dividend. However, I do not know.
