Hon Swart, yes, as government, we would like this matter to be resolved sooner than yesterday but, of course, it is the nature of democracy. To persuade other slowcoaches takes a bit of time, but we are convinced that this would benefit the country and the economy if it were to be resolved, as I said, sooner than yesterday. Thank you.
