:01:55. > :02:01.adviser. Nice to see you. Tell us more about this exercise and what

:02:01. > :02:07.it achieves. I think in the current environment, when we really are in

:02:07. > :02:13.crisis, it will not achieve a lot. Excuse me. It is looking at the

:02:13. > :02:19.whole European area. It is the EU, not the eurozone. It is 27

:02:19. > :02:24.countries. It is, where are we now? How good are they at running their

:02:24. > :02:30.economies? So put in more economic governance around it. So it is not

:02:30. > :02:34.just asking, are they doing better or worse. Sir a report card for the

:02:34. > :02:43.various members of the European Union. -- so. I imagine there is a

:02:48. > :02:54.Irish going to the polls and the elections in Greece and all the

:02:54. > :03:04.news from Spain about the banks. think this report card will not be

:03:04. > :03:11.

:03:11. > :03:14.ignored. But it may be last? You us. It is important. -- lost. -- yes.

:03:14. > :03:24.It will probably say that countries need to make more structural reform.

:03:34. > :03:41.making more structural changes is even adding to the austerity.

:03:41. > :03:44.is this about Brussels trying to reaffirm its position, saying they

:03:44. > :03:48.are the centre of the European Union and we need you more than

:03:49. > :03:56.ever to toe the line and we need to be moving together in achieving the

:03:56. > :04:01.goal of getting out of this crisis? We do want countries to be run well.

:04:01. > :04:07.Fiscally? Not just fiscal discipline. It is the way you run

:04:07. > :04:11.it. They will probably say things about Italy and tax evasion, have

:04:11. > :04:14.they done and that? Probably not. It will be interesting to see

:04:14. > :04:20.whether they say anything about France making more structural

:04:20. > :04:26.reform. It is about standing back and say, this is where we are. We

:04:26. > :04:29.are looking at what they are doing and saying is it good enough. Many

:04:29. > :04:34.coaches in the eurozone are in crisis but the ones outside of the

:04:34. > :04:44.eurozone on not necessarily in crisis. Thank you. We will see you

:05:38. > :05:45.involved in these seats but will be just fine to grow the company. --

:06:08. > :06:09.

:08:25. > :08:29.new twist to the plot. Rather than hiring foreign companies, the
