No. It is difficult to know what income bracket jobs will fall into. In some traditional sectors such as tourism, which we stimulated strongly, jobs are seasonal and the pay may be quite good but not for the full year. That is one aspect. In construction, wage rates held pretty well during the recession, and big sites are opening up in Dublin again. People are working in the sites through Saturdays and late into the evening. There will be significant incomes for building workers.
