If we want to state clearly and categorically that we are a neutral State then we absolutely should be pushing back on this. I believe there is no question on this matter. The mind boggles that this was not already pushed back before it was brought to this point. If we want to make it very clear, and we need to be a lot clearer, that we are a neutral State then we should be pushing back on this. I ask the Minister for Finance to do that on behalf of the State.
