Mr. Gavin Deans:
It is an exchange for services. We changed and updated the policy in May – just recently. When we came in and I joined in February, we looked at the policy. We changed the guards around it. The financial controller has ultimate sign-off. It is not within the commercial department. That has changed. It has also gone in front of the board. I report on that every six months to the ILT and to the board following that. For example, when we have long deals going on with the likes of the major promoters, part of their arrangement is part cash and part contra. That would be standard practice across a number of different areas.
