Mr. Jim Brown:

I acknowledge the incidents to which the Deputy referred. As I mentioned, this was interest which was owed to the bank. On the broader picture, one of the key things we have done as a result of the IT incident which occurred two years ago is to spend £750 million on improving the capabilities and resilience of our systems into the future.
