Mr. Ned Costigan:

They came from the Department of Finance in response to a parliamentary question from a Deputy. One figure from the Department states that in excess of 60,000 are on RCT and another figure stated 46,000. We assume that 46,000 of 60,000 relate to the construction area as that was the focus of the question. Relevant contracts tax covers meat processing and forestry. The figure is based on an assumption and it remains to be clarified.
