Gabhaim buíochas leis an Aire as an chur i láthair sin ar na Meastacháin. My first question relates to the revenue side. The Minister is familiar with President Biden's tax plan, particularly his support for pillar 2 of the OECD plan, which contains a minimum effective tax rate for OECD countries. While President Biden is advocating that be at 21%, it may fall somewhere below that during the negotiations. Given President Biden's support for pillar 2 and a minimum effective tax rate does the Minister believe that in future, Ireland's 12.5% tax rate will be increasing?
