As I said, leave into and out of the mission area is currently restricted due to the security issues, which is understandable. Likewise, planning continues for the November rotation. UNP 6-52 is one of the outposts where we lead, and at UNP 6-50, which is manned by Polish soldiers, we also lead in terms of the Irish PolBatt scenario. That will be a matter for the force commander. They still have supplies for close to three weeks in the outpost. It is an issue that will have to be negotiated with regard to safe passage for further supplies to that outpost. That is something the force commander on the ground will engage in with others. We have to do it in a way that is safe and secure.
