I will stick with IBEC and ask about access to credit at present. As has been said, and I completely agree, there will have to be Government movement and action, not just in making loans but in something more fundamental than that. In terms of outside Government, credit unions have recently attempted to make themselves more available to SMEs. What is IBEC's estimation of access to credit? I am talking about the very short-term bridging credit right up to something more substantial. Is it currently an issue?
