Mr. Paul Quinn:
I agree. It comes back to understanding how the market is structured and how many players there are in the market. Obviously it is in the long-term interest for the procurement function to maintain a competitive marketplace. So we will be very conscious about how the market is structured, who is out there and just how much of the pie one player might be getting if they were to be awarded the overall business. Again it is something we are increasingly conscious of.
