I thank the witnesses for the presentation. My first question follows on from Ms Sinnamon's last point and Senator Wall's question. We will produce a report at the end of this discussion. Are there specific recommendations Ms Sinnamon would like to see regarding the experience she has had with those companies for which exporting to the UK was the easy option and which have now looked at entering the eurozone? Are there specific measures Ireland can take to further support those SMEs to look at exploring the eurozone as an option?

Second, I know Enterprise Ireland has opened an office in Manchester and is obviously looking at increasing trade with the north of England. How is that proceeding?

The third question is on a specific issue which I am sure Enterprise Ireland is aware of, the problem with flour. We have been importing significant amounts of flour. There are issues that have arisen as a result, including a potential price increase in respect of bread and bakery products. It would probably make a great deal more sense now to look at Irish mills starting to grind more flour. Does Enterprise Ireland have any thoughts on flour manufacture and milling?
