I am trying to get at the fact that the preferred choice by the Revenue Commissioners is a single debit authority option. The date on which the money will be taken out is 21 March, unless the taxpayer specifies an earlier date. I welcome that but I am struggling with another point and we need to convey it better. It is not the intention to take the money for the property tax by debit card or credit card before Christmas. We saw the specifics earlier, and a figure of 15% was mentioned. If I came across as putting the witnesses under pressure earlier it is because I am feeling the pressure in my office as well. We have a problem - otherwise, we would not be around today - and it is something we want cleared up.
