I have a question for TASC and another for the OECD which I will try to get through before the time is up. I acknowledge what Mr. McCabe said about community wealth-building. I am on the same page as him. I was delighted to hear him mention the need for a green industrial strategy. I have tried to raise it as much as possible. As part of any green industrial strategy, the State will need to lead from the front. How can the State best go about doing this? Is it through procuring private sector providers or does he see a role for a State body in trying to co-ordinate it?
