Okay. Ms Feehily is correct that there are six other options, such as salary deductions. I have received correspondence from all over the country that suggests there is an equity issue. Those who state their intention to pay by credit or debit card are paying before everybody else. Ms Feehily is correct when she says the payment is due on 1 January but in other cases she allows for the payment to be made after 21 March. Why must the credit and debit card payments be removed immediately?
