I apologise for missing the start of the meeting but I have read the Minister of State's paper. The Minister of State made reference to the fact that the Strategic Banking Corporation of Ireland, SBCI, does not provide cheap loans. That was also mentioned by the previous contributor but I would actually dispute that because it does. That is part of its rationale, to provide cheap credit to SMEs. I wanted to make that point.
