I thank the Member for that. One issue that cuts across all of what we are trying to achieve economically is skills and people's ability to access appropriate skills and training. That is certainly a priority for me. Just this morning, I attended the launch of the Ulster University Economic Policy Centre's update of the skills barometer, which sets out the trajectory for the next 10 years. Certainly, I am happy to engage with the Member, Invest NI and further education colleges on that.
