I thank Mr. McDowell. Given that the level of capital investment has fallen way down since the crash and all that, a big debate we are having here - and I apologise if this has already been raised - is about the constraints of the fiscal rules as applied to capital investment. We are trying to make a case for capital investment to be treated differently from current spending. Has the EIB any view on this or any influence on the EU in this debate?
