Some of my questions are along the same lines. First, regarding what Senator Paul Daly said about not supporting companies who want to trade with the North, is Enterprise Ireland going to look at that issue? In terms of proposals from Enterprise Ireland on imaginative solutions which the EU is seeking, has the organisation looked at replicating or seeking to replicate the trading arrangements between West and East Germany prior to reunification? In that scenario, East Germany was treated, effectively, as a member of the European Community, without anybody formalising that. Could that be used as a precedent for a trading arrangement between the North and the South of Ireland?
