I want to return to the "Future Shock" issue. Can we agree that the housing market and banking are not within Ms Hunt's core areas of expertise?

These are core areas. Ms Hunt mentioned that the programme covered three issues she disagreed with, foreign direct investment, FDI, the construction downturn and interest rates. Can we also agree that in her press release, which called this irresponsible journalism, Ms Hunt did not mention FDI or interest rates and focused on construction, the housing market which she said she has no expertise in?
