What is the Minister's outlook on the lasting effects of the current global economic turmoil and tariffs in particular? If modified domestic demand falls to 1%, for example, does he see the economy being robust and resilient enough to rebound from that or is there likely to be a shift such that until those tariffs are taken away, we will permanently be operating at a lower level?
