Ms Katherine Licken:

Everything will be done in parallel. We are very confident the approach we are taking to the scheme is very much in line with the state aid guidelines so we will not run into issues. One never knows, but we are very confident we are taking the right approach and that Directorate General for competition will be happy with how we are doing it, which will mean a much speedier state aid approval process.
