I thank the Minister of State. He has given a dispassionate analysis of the situation as it stands. He very cleverly did not give me any opinion whatsoever with regard to whether he thinks it is right that there should be transparent public knowledge and country-by-country reporting. Does he think it is right that people are kept in the dark with regard to their expenditure and the tax justice behind that? Does the Minister of State think it is right that if I buy an Apple laptop, iPad or phone, I do not know exactly the tax justice behind it? Should citizens not know that information?
