In the Minister's concluding remarks he identified some of the principal risks. The three he identified were Brexit, changes to the international corporate tax landscape and possible disruptions to the global trading system. From his perspective as Minister for Finance and the overall guardian of the economy, does he regard them as the top three risks we face as a country? We are all aware of the risk matrix, the stability programme update and so on, but are they three risks that may result in the headwinds we could be facing?
