I have paid tribute on many occasions to the staff involved and to the BBC for the service that it provides around the world, and I do so again. I said that we might be able to find some additional help with the restructuring costs, and I mentioned in my initial answer the money that we have included in the settlement to underwrite the World Service's move to new headquarters and to ensure that some new services can be developed. There is a strong commitment to the future of the World Service.
