Let us park the issue that some multinationals and other enterprises might not readily give the information to the CSO despite having a legal requirement to do so. Let us imagine that they were providing it to us. Does this improve the situation or not in the medium term? Mr. Dalton has said that in the short term, the CSO will continue to gather export and import data. Six or seven years down the road, if enterprises go along with it, will this be a better system?
