I wish to go back to the beginning of slide 18 because I want to try to understand when the process actually started. The strategy development was between 2014 and 2015. From July 2015 to November 2015, there was a detailed assessment of six operators. Can I assume that the process had started in terms of engagement with potential bidders in and around July 2015 if not prior to that?
