On gross domestic product, could the officials elaborate on EUROSTAT figures and the huge surge in GDP? There was a peak of general Government gross debt of 120% in 2012 and 2013, 79% in 2015, and 73% in 2016. There was an exceptional increase in Irish GDP in 2015 and 2016. Can the officials explain that?
