Absolutely. I will definitely make the case that the issues such as those for which the Deputy has made the case for many decades, as a member of our party and a Member of the House, should be advantageous and should not disadvantage us in the negotiations under way. We made a significant statement last week on corporation tax policy and the negotiations under way. The statement was scrutinised throughout the world and has provided a good basis for the political engagement we are having. It is a really important area for Ireland now. We have made our case, and our diplomats and I will make the case in the negotiations that will take place before the OECD meets before the summer. I am engaging with other finance ministers on the subject as well.
