Thank you very much, hon Singh. Indeed, our growth projections were revised downwards and therefore it may very well mean that we will not be able to meet the set targets. In fact, we have been keeping an eye on another indicator, which is the number of people who are recipients of social grants. That has also been rising. In the current global economic climate many other countries will not be able to meet the targets set in the MDGs and so it is understandable that we may not be able to meet those targets.
That is why we have been convening meetings of all stakeholders to try and lift the outlook of the country, because even the rating agencies have given us a rather negative outlook. This means that we have got to pull up our socks and do everything possible to get the economy and the confidence of investors on a firm footing so that we can indeed tackle the challenges of poverty and hunger. Thank you.
