It is important that everything is marketed responsibly everywhere. Obviously we can only control what we do in our country but what we do here in our country is produce the safest, best quality and most nutritious dairy products, including infant formula products as well. That is why our country's raw milk is so sought after as a key ingredient for that. That is part of the diet in our own country and in other countries. How that is managed and what national policy is in different countries is a matter for the countries to which it is going. From our point of view, from an agriculture and food point of view it is about producing product which is exceptionally safe, exceptionally nutritious and sustainable. We do that very well.
