The question is about how the NTMA does it. How does it evaluate risk? Debt is either sustainable or it is not. If it becomes unsustainable, the NTMA needs measurements and processes in place that allow it to make a judgement on whether debt is sustainable, unsustainable or somewhere in between. When the NTMA carries out its risk analysis, what does it specifically do? How does it evaluate whether or not debt is sustainable or unsustainable?
