It is a minor matter. I welcome that there will be a review. We must examine the issue in a genuine and serious way, taking on board the fuel tourism issue. While there will be an uptick in drawdown because of the price of diesel, it will not be at the level it should be at because the practice is that when a haulier goes abroad, he or she fills up before coming back. They do this because it is beneficial.
