I am very short of time. I do not need Mr. Considine to describe the process. The question I am asking is very specific. The personal insolvency legislation foresees the Bank of Ireland engaging in debt forgiveness. On Monday, Mr. Boucher categorically ruled out the Bank of Ireland doing that. As a public interest director, does Mr. Considine agree with Mr. Boucher's position or oppose it in this instance?
