I wished to clarify that. That was another cause of concern in the letter. I will finish on the point of thalidomide. I wish to understand clearly, having read the letters. A number of people suffered as a result of mothers taking thalidomide. The State comes into this because at the time there was a question as to whether it should have taken the product off the market sooner. That is where the SCA's liability comes in, is that right?
