The statutory instruments have moved to 120 days. Again, this gives the merchant service providers further security in the context of our debate today. Let us consider the behaviour of the merchant service providers. On 4 May, the Department of Transport wrote to AIB Merchant Services. The Department said the Minister had received representations from licensed travel industry operators about significant changes to terms being applied by merchant service providers arising apparently from a reappraisal of the risk profile. Has the commission been made aware of any of that?
