May I ask one supplementary question on that? I know this is not a straightforward question, but if the AHBs were taken off the Government balance sheet today, what would that mean for the fiscal space available? What would be taken out? What would be the advantage to a Government of having it off-balance sheet in terms of how it could then use that fiscal space elsewhere? Can Mr. McDonagh quantify that?
