Maybe what I will try to do again, is I wanted to get it clear, is provide some clarity. Because an officer leaves the government, that does not automatically mean that they are restricted from working with the government within the year that they leave the government. Do you understand what I am saying? It means that they can take work as long as the work they are taking does not give them the opportunity to unduly exploit the confidential information and they meet the criteria that I alluded to yesterday. I am advised, again, I say to you I am advised that nobody, in my tenure as the Finance Minister and I am sure the FMB, nothing has come across my desk, repeat nothing, that has requested a waiver. Therefore, I have to make the assumption that those people, all of them, including the ones we have talked about have met the criteria and the policies of contracting the former employees. Thank you.
