Going to change, or are they going to be modified . And how soon will you be establishing those . Are they in the same priority that was mentioned in terms of which ones are going to be focused on first . I would say it is in the same priority.

Of this, how much of this support are true north pillars and particularly some of the metrics we have already identified . We feel the metrics we have now are appropriate and has been a 1 1 match within epic in our pre epic sources, we would be continuing along that journey anyway
