There is a visual aspect in relation to the very large amount of money held on deposit, whereas there are things that need to be done. One tends to find that the areas where there is rapid population growth are also in the main the areas with a low baseline. There will be the additional questions, but I wanted to ask about the baselines. When I listened on the monitor earlier, I heard that body of work was ongoing. Local government budgets start to be worked out in August and are concluded in September. Is the change likely to happen before the local government budgets are set this year?
