Thank you very much, Executive Vice-President.  Thank you, Commissioners.  Let's move on to your questions and the answers of the college members.  Fred, Philippe, then, and then Nico.

Yes, Frédéric Simon from Carbon Pulse.  I'd be curious to know what, I'm here.  I'd be curious to know what is the figure for emission reductions expected from ETS sectors by 2040.  For 2030, the figure was 62%.  So I'd like to know what it is now. 

And second, related to this, what does it mean then in terms of the burden that will now have to be picked up by non-ETS sectors?  Because there's a second leg of climate legislation coming later this year on forestry, on road transport.  So, yeah, what does that mean for them?

So first to give you the numbers.  For the first five years, 2030 to 2035, the linear reduction factor, if that is the number you're looking for, is 3.7.  For the second five years, it is 1.7, but that is of course combined with up to 2% of international credits.  You might recall the conversation we've had on international credits where we've said we're gonna be that serious about our climate goals of 90%, but we allow for 5% of international credits in that goal.  That is not mandatory, it is an option, and we will pull that option if in 2035 it is clear that that is cost-effective.
