Thank you. I want to know if the sanctions that will be placed on Ireland will be based on our GDP. I am more concerned about that than anything else. That would apply if we cannot take certain numbers. Our GDP is based on the multinational companies that are here, so it is quite an inflated figure. I have huge concerns about this pact and I would like the Minister of State's views on it. All of these regulations in regard to the Digital Services Bill and the EU migration pact seem to be very timely, coming up to a European election. I wonder if this is just a smokescreen for the public in respect of the election.
