This is a useful discussion. I thank the Ministers for their statements. In his statement, the Minister, Deputy Michael McGrath, said that the expected global growth of 2.7% is the lowest annual rate since the global financial crisis. If we were to get an external shock, not even a huge one, would we be prepared for it as things stand?
