I was listening to the discussion. I will raise two issues. The first point relates to what was said about the upheaval within the banking sector in various parts of the world at the moment and how it might affect the global economy. Do the witnesses envisage any risk to Ireland in terms of our corporation tax take in the next year or two years as a result of anything that might be going on there?
The second issue relates to the amount of money we are putting into the rainy day fund. Do the witnesses have any suggestions as to how we might use the money for the betterment of society in Ireland?
