Ms Jennifer Banim:
We would not look at it in that way. We would purely go by the criteria for what we record in the statistics. For statistical purposes the criteria stipulate that on this economic basis if a company is contracting work abroad and selling it on or exporting it on there, that is a profit or a value-add that is attributable to the Irish entity for statistical purposes. We do not stray into that taxation question.
