There is probably not enough time to go into the loan model at this stage. I do not want to leave people with the sense that I am in agreement on it. I do not think it is an appropriate solution. There is probably not enough time to have a full discussion on it. My main point is this will require huge investment. I look forward to seeing what it is because I think the deficit at the moment is underestimated, quite apart from the inequalities.
