We will have another round as well. In fact, the IFAC made the point that the Minister committed to budget surpluses in 2016 for 2018 and in 2017 for 2019 so it is not my assertion. None of the assertions I made is personal. They are all from the reports of the PBO, the Governor of the Central Bank and IFAC. This is not a political charge as this is the Committee on Budgetary Oversight. Any of the statements I made were in that context.
