I have two questions. One is on whether a review of the success of Microfinance Ireland has been undertaken and what are the highlights, the positive things like loss levels and so on. Second, while I welcome all the accountability to the public accounts committee, will there be a reporting requirement? To whom will be the reporting? Going through the different sections, I do not see the furnishing of a strategy or a report to anyone being conferred on the new microfinance body.
