Mr. John Hogan:

It is fair to say that we have had to invest quite a bit of effort in meeting the regulations and the standards that are expected on that. We have certainly closed that gap, to be frank.

We have been extremely active on financial sanctions over the last months as a result of the war in Ukraine. The package of sanctions has emerged at a European level, sometimes at extraordinary speed. We have been very conscious of our obligations at international level to move quickly to transpose those and we have done them successfully.
