I want to let people who have written to me to at least know that I have passed their correspondence on to the Central Bank. On the future and the EU proposals, whatever proposal is made must be based on the regulation of agents and funds. The central piece for me must be that whoever gets caught up in a difficulty like that is protected. The citizen must come first and not be blackguarded by the strong corporate arm of a well-funded vulture. That is my view on the future. We have come to the end of the first part of our meeting. I thank the witnesses for being present today.
