Basically what we have here is a correction of a drafting error. They put the word 'Commonwealth' when they should have put the word 'national regulator'. By reason of that we are technically not able to send money is that were owed to the national regulator to the national regulator. This is extremely brief, so I will be brief. We are fixing up a drafting error. Let's leave it at that.
