I thank the Minister for a comprehensive presentation which has given much food for thought. In the context of his reference to maximising our potential, I acknowledge his commitment, despite the serious fiscal challenges we are facing, to maintaining our overseas aid expenditure. I understand it currently stands at 0.52% of GDP.
