We will take this up with the Department. BT's concern would be that at the point of extending the contract, which was quite recently, certainly it did not meet the state aid rules at that point because it was an operator of the service and was doing the managed services entity process at the same time. Mr. Evans and Mr. O'Dwyer have a concern about that now.
