Mr. Chair, we always need to consider how we are managing the economy and how we can produce a budget that works and that improves our future prospects. In our budget, we considered each measure and how it could contribute to the efficiency of our economy and boost our growth rate. That is an approach that has delivered results. It is working. We are going to continue with our responsible approach, with a declining debt-to-GDP ratio, and with investments that are good for the economy.
