I am not aware of any such discussions in other countries. Even if those discussions are beginning to develop, they have not got to the point of causing discussion in either Eurogroup or ECOFIN meetings. When our thinking is more advanced on this in the next few months, I believe we will be one of the countries, if not the first country, to raise this matter.
