I met with EU focus in September when they gave a presentation of Asahi Kasei and their view on the proposal. They also informed me that Asahi Kasei had submitted comments in the public consultation. I do not see a need for an additional meeting at this point. We need to focus on the information from the consultation that ended 25th September. We will take any relevant information into account when updating our proposal.
