My last question relates to the Digital Services Act, DSA. I know that it has been already touched on, but we saw it come into force last week, so it is new. Ms Fitzpatrick talked earlier about the resourcing issue and the increase in resources for the DPC in recent years. With the effective relocation of the regulation of the very large online platforms, that is now being moved and will be centralised at EU level. How do the witnesses see that playing out with the DPC and all the pressures the office has been under in recent years? Will this free up resources for the DPC in respect of all the other tech firms and everything that is playing out? Will it have much of a substantial impact?
