The committee might find it useful if a comparative analysis were done as a part of this. If not, is it intended to do one? For example, the Vice Chairman asked about liberal labour laws in various member states and Mr. Stull replied that Ireland is not too bad but there are some others that are. Is there any comparative analysis of the various measures such as foreclosures, insolvency and labour liberalisation that shows which member state is doing well and which is not? This would be helpful in allowing us to see the areas in which we are pretty good and those in which we can learn from other countries.
