I will come back to the Cathaoirleach. As for what is in it for Kazakhstan, I am not here to speak on behalf of Kazakhstan, as the Cathaoirleach knows. Kazakhstan may want to become an accession country to the EU and may want to advance its own interests, and reaching an agreement with the European Commission in respect of readmissions will, no doubt, be of assistance to Kazakhstan. It will not enter into this unless it is of some diplomatic or political benefit to it.
