I do not have an exact date for that. In response to Deputy McDonald's query about when the first meetings with the new British Administration would take place, I do not want to anticipate outcomes, but from everything I read, the results will be very tight, so I do not know when that administration, of whatever political colour, will come into being. However, we have a very close relationship with the British Government, as Britain is our nearest neighbour, and I anticipate that we will be having meetings with the new administration very shortly after it is formed.
