Hon PAUL GOLDSMITH (National): Well, thank you, Madam Chair. This debate, as the Minister of Finance has said, is one that obliges us to cast our minds back prior to the events that have dominated everything for the last couple of months in terms of the economy. The Minister has just said that we went in strong, and the point that we would make is that the facts don't really back that up entirely. In fact, the GDP growth of the country had slowed to 1.8 percent year on year in the December 2019 quarter. It is worth remembering that. The Government had inherited two years ago an economy that was growing rapidly, over 3 percent—it had been nearly 4 percent in 2016—and there has been a sharp slow-down in growth prior to what happened with the COVID crisis.
