I will move to the last paragraph on page 3 of the same document and the Waterford case study. It is recommendation 11.4. Again, the witness talks about Eurofisc and various checks being carried out. She has said a new social network tool is being explored to identify potential fraudulent business networks. Will she explain this? The paragraph also states it is expected this tool will be deployed in 2014. What does she have in mind and why will it be deployed next year?

Does Revenue expect to deploy the tool in 2014? What has the office in mind? Why will it not happen until next year when it was identified in 2011?
