The Deputy has the right to raise these issues again but parts of them were probably debated earlier. In everyone's interest, I will not return to the issue of multinationals and the contribution they make, except to say that about 250,000 of the ordinary people of whom the Deputy speaks work in foreign direct investment firms in this country. Some of them might live in the Deputy's constituency. He might even know some of them. They are valuable to the economy.
