Very good. In relation to the issues of the vulture funds and the interest rates they are charging, Mr. Madouros mentioned the code earlier. The code is a mechanism by which it is understood that we can make sure that vulture funds are adhering to Irish regulations. Is there any lever currently in place in the code to force the vulture funds to stop charging interest rates that are 2%, 3% and 4% higher than the traditional banks?
