I will leave those points. In light of the European element and Brexit in general, does the Minister see our contribution to the EU budget increasing significantly in a post-Brexit world? When we look at things we want to protect like CAP, this has put us in a position where we have made a commitment to consider increasing that contribution. Has the Minister received feedback on this from other European countries? When one looks at the scale of the promised spending that seems to be planned in the UK in its preparations for a post-Brexit scenario, is there a case for us to consider the same scale of spending? I do not necessarily subscribe to this view. They think it is a good idea in the UK in light of much of the fallout from Brexit. What impacts on them will impact on us. What is the Minister's view on that?
