As we have an open border with Northern Ireland, it is perfectly lawful for any general merchant in Northern Ireland to sell antiparasitics, which can be delivered to any farm here. Has it been considered that we might actually drive it underground and instead of having a greater control of and accountability around antiparasitics, we might end up with less? That is my last question. There are others I could ask but I appreciate we are running out of time.
