Ms Cep Carty:
The reality of it is that we are engaging with the European Public Sector Accounting Standards group. It has a working group in place that is looking at both accruals accounting and fiscal transparency. We are doing a "lessons learned" process with places like Malta, that has moved further ahead, and the Austrian Treasury. We are trying to avoid pitfalls that they might have encountered along the way.
