Progress has been made by the working group dealing with the fuel rebate and the haulage association and the Minister for Finance has been involved. We will certainly put the weight of the committee behind it and I hope we will see some progress in the budget.
We will be proactive in dealing with the issues that have been raised today and will revert to the Irish Exporters Association on them.
Mr. Whelan raised the question of export credit insurance, a subject that we wished to have debated last year but were told was not an issue. I am concerned about it. Is it still an issue for the IEA?
