I welcome Ms Feehily and her colleagues. The big issue for people is the property tax. We are seven days from 1 March, which is when the Revenue Commissioners will be writing to people with explanatory guidelines on valuation. To bring clarity to the situation, because people are going through difficult times and they need to be clear about these things, when will Revenue write to people? How many people will Revenue to be writing to? If people do not receive a letter, are they still liable? We read in the media that GPS technology will be used as a basis for valuations. Is that true?
