Competitiveness and the Cost of Doing Business in Ireland: Discussion (Resumed)
2:00 am
Tony McCormack (Offaly, Fianna Fail)
Those other competitive countries have natural resources that we do not have, such as an oil and gas, so we have to be very careful with the way we go about this and that we do not price ourselves out of the market. As I said, our natural resources are our people, our agriculture, and hopefully in the future, wind energy. I suppose fishing was in the past, but it is not as big as it was.
