I thank Mr. Moloney very much for that.

I will not ask him about specifics with regard to the national development plan, but who is involved in the negotiation process? Does he share my concern that it is politically vulnerable in terms of cost effectiveness and the policy on public procurement? Is there a risk with the national development plan as it stands, and the negotiation process, given that we have seen people say on the public record that they have secured this, that and the other in the national development plan review? Mr. Moloney says we are still in negotiation. Is it politically vulnerable?
