One quick question - will the Audit Committee work with/oversee the
finances of the FDC as well? The FDC has its own Ombudspeople (person?
not sure if it's one or two)  but it's not clear whether the scope of
the AC has expanded to take account of the FDC's creation.

I have no idea, but I do know things have jumped around a bit since
this time last year :-)
