I agree with Deputy Donnelly that how we engage this process is important. I recollect that one of the central findings of the Nyberg and Regling-Watson reports indicates that what brought us into economic difficulties was a tendency towards group-think in Irish society and the Irish political system, in addition to a lack of willingness to question. That is what we are engaged in.
