I thank Mr. O'Brien for his attendance. It is appreciated. I wish IBEC the best with its pre-budget launch, which I think is tomorrow. I am afraid I will not be able to attend as I have another commitment.

I have a series of questions, most of which are brief, so I ask Mr. O'Brien to be as concise as he can in answering.

Does IBEC accept that trade with the occupied territories is a wholly different thing legally and commercially from trade with the State of Israel?
