I want to return to the issue of claims and clarify a few issues. Approximately 1,000 claims are outstanding at the moment and the estimated cost of those is €500 million. Mr. Gunning said that ten claims account for 80% of that value, or approximately €400 million, as of now. What is the likely impact of inflation on those? Are they fixed figures or are they likely to be impacted by inflation when the final reckoning comes?
