I will move on because my time is limited, but I make the point that I disagree strongly with that. The employer is interested in how much it costs him or her to employ somebody and to pay the worker the wages necessary and that is where the issue of tax wedge comes into it. Ireland, in the case of those incomes, is not above the average. Indeed, we are below the average.
