I thank the Minister and his official for taking the time to appear before the committee. It is clear there is a deadline on both policies. If agreement is not reached on the Common Fisheries Policy in the next three or four weeks it will not happen until God knows when. In regard to the Common Agricultural Policy, even if we get agreement it is obvious that 2014 will be an interim year and Lithuania will have more than enough to do to take control of the signing of the regulations. I thank the Minister and look forward to an update at a future session.
