I will come to Mr. Derek Moran first. Can we have short and sharp answers from him, if he can, because we are working to a clock today?

If I can start with the GNI*, gross national income (Star), Mr. Moran said it gives a more accurate picture of the market value of goods and services in this State and is more reliable than GDP, gross domestic product? Is that correct?
