When we had a difficulty accessing the market, essentially during the three years when the troika were here, 2011 to 2013, we were sitting on in excess of €50 billion in cash reserves. The agency thought we needed to have that because we might not have been able to raise such funds down the road. The troika came for a three-year period. Mr. O'Kelly might tell me if I am right in my reading of that.
