I want Mr. Shanahan to outline the role of the strategic investment bank. What does Forfás hope will happen? I am interested to learn more about the figure mentioned by him earlier. He said that 19% of SME applications in Ireland have been turned down but the percentage is only 12% in the rest of Europe. Will the discrepancy be solved by the strategic investment bank? How does Forfás see the bank working?
