Committee of Inquiry into the Banking Crisis
Context Phase

Mr. Rob Wright:
I mean that is just arithmetic. I think they are all connected in what you have to dig yourself through. I think you have got the right the processes and ways to minimise the legacy burden of the bank decision and you have got the right people focused on that. On the structural deficit, you have got a medium-term plan that you are going to deal with.
I mentioned this point - I should be more emphatic, perhaps - but I think you should look at everything you can to enhance the growth prospects of the country. It is not just a question of reallocating spending in the community at large but it is a question of how you can allocate to enhance your capacity for balanced growth beyond the construction sector and see yourself through on that. That is the key to the growth.
