The economic assessment will take the pattern of previous ones. It will look on a sector-by-sector basis at each of the sectors that are likely to be affected by the reduction of tariffs in the case of new access to these markets and imports of quotas where quotas have been allowed in the various agricultural markets. They look at its impact on living standards, employment and the flows of imports and exports, and the net effects of that for regions and for the economy as a whole. That is the approach that has been taken previously and I am sure that will be the approach that will be taken again.
