What we have is a commitment. The Deputy wants it to step down today, something I would like to see. It was in my initial statement before I received this information today. I would like it to step down and it is my desire that it would step down, but, as Mr. Treacy said, if it was to step down today and we had to put a new board in place, it would take some time to do so and there would be a vacuum which would delay implementation of the corporate governance reforms. I believe it will step down because of the letter it sent to me today. I want it to happen as quickly as possible, before the AGM, not afterwards.
