I have a question for Mr. Talbot. Mr. Martin Murray from Asia Matters attended the committee recently to discuss the trade potential in Asia, in particular in some of the emerging markets. Yesterday afternoon, the Indonesian ambassador, who is based in London, paid a courtesy call. Has Mr. Talbot contacts with counterparts in chambers of commerce in Asia? What is his view on the emerging market of Indonesia where many multinational companies are based? There is the possibility that an Irish embassy may be established there.
