Most of the points I wanted to raise have been and I anticipate the answers. There are a lot of rumours among those one meets in the sector about an increase in the budget in the price of agricultural diesel. Everybody here has mentioned the crisis and we are looking for funding and supports to help people. It would be a double whammy to start to hit the agriculture sector with an increase like that. I ask the Minister to bat for the agriculture sector in the budget negotiations if there is any truth to the rumours out there that this is something that is coming down the line.
