Thanks, Paula. Christian with News Europe. It's a question for you on the planning for next week. You mentioned that the President will be in Paris on Tuesday for the 14th of July celebrations. Is that the reason that you're not holding the College meeting the following day on a Wednesday as is the usual practice, or is there something else that's planned for the Wednesday?

Thank you.

Thank you, Christian. I think I had the opportunity indeed already to clarify that it is due to agenda issues, and you can never exclude that there could be other topics added to the agenda of the President. So that's why the College is taking place two days later, but not too late. It's only a postponement of two days. Yes, Christian.

Thanks, Paula. But you didn't mention what the scheduling issues are. Is that something that you can tell us, or is it secret?
