I will end on this point. We need to invest. I know these are difficult times and everybody is in the queue such as hospitals and schools. I spoke at the Institute of European Affairs. A wonderful young woman came up to me to say she was really worried about the country. She is now studying law but had previously completed a high technology degree in some third level institution in Dublin. Three years ago she was one of a class of 220 students, but when she returned this year, there were 12. That is not good.
