I will ask just one more question because the Vice Chair is jumping. A few farmers have been on to me in the last few weeks. There is the assessment done on a dairy cow where the amount of milk she had is looked at to do the valuation and all that, but on the EBI something has changed over the last few weeks so there is between €50 and €80 less being got for the same cow than would have been got six months ago. Am I right in saying that?
