As this is the first Question Time with the new ministerial team, I wish the Ministers of State, Deputies Gerald Nash and Damien English, every success in their new roles and acknowledge the work done by Deputy John Perry and the Minister of State, Deputy Sean Sherlock, in the Department.

Will the Minister outline the changes to our corporation tax regime since Tuesday? Will he confirm the reports in The Irish Timesthis morning that he has launched what it calls a co-ordinated campaign of letters and telephone calls but which everybody else would call spin and a panic reaction? Will he also confirm whether the Minister for Finance, Deputy Michael Noonan, is involved in the campaign?
