There is a need for a review of this business. The State has been successful in bringing 50% of all of this leasing business to this country but there is a need for a review of it to ensure that we maximise the potential of it without losing any of the investment we currently have. I ask that such a review be carried out and presented to this committee before the enactment of next year's Finance Bill.

We have added to this sector every year in the Finance Bill. It has attracted inward investment, but I am not sure that we have got a sufficient number of benefits from the sector.
