The results were at variance with the random sampling exercise. Was there a difficulty with the design of the random sampling exercise? I am curious about how far divergent it appears to be. We are talking about real delays in the design, both the high-level design and, as we discussed this morning, the low-level design, that are at variance with the assessment that had been done. I am asking what that is attributable to. Why would someone do a random sampling exercise that was so at variance with the overall outcome?
