Mr. Fergal Mulligan:
Just to clarify that, all bidders would have set up a subsidiary company as part of their general group. It was just a specific requirement for governance reasons, similar to the conversation we had about Enet and the MANs where BT was recommending to have a separate company. For the NBP we made the decision in 2015 that whoever won the NBP would have a separate registered tax-based company in Ireland dedicated to the NBP.
