Mr. Tony Murphy:
On the pure cash flow, if we want to call it this, in 2023 we paid €3.2 billion into the EU budget and we received back roughly €2.2 billion. We are looking at approximately €1 billion in the difference. If we break this down, most of what we paid in, at approximately €1.5 billion, went to natural resources and environment. This is basically agriculture. We will publish for 2024 next week.
