Mr. Barnes mentioned that the level of debt is comparatively high historically, and internationally among countries of a similar size. What I understand from Mr. Barnes is that, given all the knowledge we have, we are not going to be returning to a situation where our interest rates will be decided on the basis of our ability to be able to repay debt, which was the major factor in our experience ten years ago.
