I am old enough to remember - I am one of the victims of the Celtic tiger, having bought a property at the wrong time - that the fundamentals of the economy were strong. Many people were buying homes on the strength of people such as the witness coming in to committees such as this and saying that the fundamentals were strong and that we had a fast growing economy. Is there any concern?
