I propose to take Questions Nos. 7, 44, 46, 61, 63 and 76 together.
As there are five questions, we are not confined to six minutes.
My reply is similar to that which I gave to questions which were dealt with earlier.
I do not wish to ask any further supplementary questions.
I am satisfied with the earlier reply.
