Okay. Maybe my recollection was not as sharp on a document I have read. Regardless of that, I have previously appealed for whistleblowers to come forward. I again appeal publicly for whistleblowers to come forward to the Central Bank with information.

Would it be appropriate to consider a whistleblower reward programme such as exists in the United States where whistleblowers can, upon conviction or prosecution of individuals or institutions, receive up to 10% or up to 30% of the fine or moneys recouped? Would something like that support the work of the Central Bank in being able to deal with some of the financial institutions that may be breaching regulations? It is very difficult for the Central Bank to be over everything that is happening within the institutions.
