Ms Jennifer Banim:

I do not have it exactly. However, this might help somewhat. In 2015 we had that 26% jump in GDP. The national accounts framework has another indicator, net domestic product, which strips out many of these globalisation events. I could not give it to the Senator separately, but in 2015 that grew by about 6%, which is more in line with the growth in the underlying economy or the real domestic economy. That gives a sense of the scale-----
