Okay. I am aware we are looking at a new national plan on business and human rights. There was an existing plan from 2017. I think it was up to 2020. If Mr. Hogan is correct in what he is saying, there is ongoing engagement with regard to compliance with those guidelines. I would say there has been a distinct failure to comply with those. If we still have, which we do, shareholdings in businesses operating in those illegal settlements, I would say we are non-compliant with our own guidelines we are issuing and advice we are giving to businesses globally. If we are non-compliant with those guidelines, how can we issue guidelines to any other businesses?
