Aindrias Moynihan: I have just one or two very quick questions on this. I am conscious that voting is ongoing as well. Regarding the top ten corporation taxpayers, their share of spending in tax seems to be diminishing compared with previous years.

Jim O'Callaghan: There has been considerable delay in giving effect to the decision in the Damache case. The circumstances of Demache made quite a significant case.

I listened to the points that Deputy Howlin...
