down a little bit more in May. And I just wondered if you can highlight any kind of reasons for the difference or trends that we're probably maybe
not fully thinking about.
And the third one, and it may be a bit premature, but is on dividend. So here, given the environment today -- the regulatory environment, how
likely or how much more confident are you that you will execute on your plan to pay the remaining EUR 0.46 later in the second half?
And on the dividend going forward, if I look at consensus, it's down a bit, which would imply using a payout ratio that the dividend might be down
a bit and there's no official [budget]. But I just wondered maybe you can say something about that.
