In terms of language, the Deputy makes a point on it.
In regard to the point made by Deputy Donnelly, the more people who come in from the private sphere - I hope this is not taken as a criticism of anybody here - the more private sphere jargon appears in scripts and language, which is interesting. If one goes to an IBEC meeting or any business meeting, an idiom is spoken at them which is not plain English. We will try to do better.
