With respect, Chairman, we are not talking about differences of opinion. We are talking about statements of fact that were made at a Senate hearing under sworn testimony when they said two things which somebody in Revenue says is wrong. That is not just a difference of opinion. We will park that and come back to it.

I am one of those whom the Chairman mentioned earlier that needs things explained in very simple terms to them. I am a bit like those who listen in to the hearings. Will Mr. Cody bear with me as I want to get clarity on what was in the Comptroller and Auditor General's report on tax compliance?

Am I correct in stating that the headline figures show that 39% of taxpayers who were audited between 2008 and 2015 were found to have underpaid?
