I wish to ask specifically about what the IMF has said. I heard the ESRI said something as well although I did not read it so I cannot say for sure. However, I understand the ESRI mentioned in recent days increasing capital expenditure. How does that relate to what the IMF has said? Does the Minister believe what is being proposed now is in line with, as ambitious or as largescale as what the IMF was talking about? Is what we are projecting for the future or anticipating for public expenditure in terms of capital investment as much as it needs to be according to the IMF?
