Ms Josephine Feehily:

The work is done in 2013-14 and the credit is given in 2015-16.

On the Deputy's question about interest, my colleagues ran four seminars at the Ideal Homes Exhibition within two days of the budget announcement and they were packed. All over the country local Revenue staff are attending such events and meeting groups of local business people. There is a huge interest in understanding the mechanics of the scheme and engaging with it. We are providing speakers and experts to attend meetings and talk to people. At that level, I can assure the Deputy that there is a lot of interest.
