Mr. Gabriel Makhlouf:

Yes, I am independent of Government. As I said, I have had lots of suggestions and advice on all sorts of issues and I am very happy to receive the widest set of views, comments and recommendations from people but, at the end of the day, we have to make our judgement based on delivering our mandate. That can sometimes be quite hard to do but it is always pretty clear as to what it is we need to do.
