I thank the Minister for staying with us. I have a few questions, some of which may ramble, so please forgive me. My first is on the modelling the Department may have done on the risks from the US-EU trade tensions, particularly in heavy sectors such as pharma, medical, medtech and ICT. Has sector-specific modelling been done and plans devised with other Departments for the diversification of trade, supporting those sectors or opening up new export markets?
