On that occasion, we will have more opportunity to discuss all of the issues. Professor Boyle will have his team with him so we can discuss the various matters that have been highlighted today in more detail. I refer, in particular, to the capital requirement and staffing levels, which are huge issues for the future. We need another meeting to deal with both issues in more detail. I look forward to having the meeting before Christmas and I am not trying to get away from the points that were made.
