Mr. John McCarthy:
Some of the stamp duty receipts will clearly come from the housing market. We do not have good data on turnover in the housing market; we have good data on new house completions and so forth, but turnover is a bit of an issue. I may have to get back to the Deputy on this because there is an issue regarding one-offs on stamp duty, possibly due to the pension levy falling out. I am just not sure whether it is 15 or 16. It may be 16.
