It is a general question. I will come back to the Central Bank issue. I wish to tease this one out because the impression being given is that the Irish Government has done absolutely nothing on this issue. That has been the presentation here. It is important we get it balanced. I will come back to the issue of the Central Bank, but I am asking another question. Do the witnesses believe the Irish Government has been to the forefront in trying to get other countries on board, both at a European level and also in the work it has done within the UN, especially in the diplomatic services within the UN?
