Just one second, Mr. Watt. This concludes the meeting. I was just thinking, as we were going through the questions, that it is similar to the type of arrangement that was reached in relation to the increase in salary for a Secretary General, where a small number of people made the decision. I do not think that should be the case, either in that case or in this case. From your answers today, I think the people listening in have an interest in this and will make up their own minds. For me, as I have said, I felt it was a really bizarre exchange at times. I say this as Chairman listening carefully to what was said on both sides. It really disappoints me the standard I witnessed here today. If Mr. Watt has a closing statement, he can make it. Otherwise we will just conclude the meeting.
