Mr. Fergal O'Brien:

I will follow up with one comment on Senator Blaney's question about the changing geography of economic prosperity.

One of the things we have observed, again, over the past ten or 15 years, is that even the west coast of Ireland has become a real hotbed for manufacturing excellence. While certain sectors are very predominant in, for example, Dublin, there are other sectors where distance from market is not the limiting factor it was in the past. The capacity to be able to attract skills into these areas is much stronger than it was in the past. That is having quite a significant impact on where economic activity happens. It is now about the individuals and talent dictating where that activity happens rather than being in major population centres or traditional industrial bases. We see that dynamic around economic distribution evolving quite a lot.
