I will be very brief. I do not want to go back over what has been raised. I apologise for being late. Unfortunately, I had an event in Cork today I had to come back up from.

On the EU prospectus regulation, as a result of this issue with Israel coming up, has there been any discussion at European level? This same issue could arise with another country in 12 months' or two years' time. Has there been any review or discussion at EU level about how the regulations need to be tightened up? We seem to have a free hand here in that central banks are obliged to comply and are complying with the regulation, without question, but is the regulation too open? Should far stricter criteria be set out on that? Has there been any discussion at EU level about looking at this?
