Mr. Niall Cody:

We know there were people between 2005 and 2007, the really good times, who bought apartments and all sorts of things, whether in Florida or Bulgaria. They opened bank accounts and stuff is over there. The issue is reporting coming down the tracks. If we do not find a person in the first tranche, some of the additional resources around IT will enable matching. There is a footprint and if the footprint is found, these are the consequences.

The Minister asked us what we wanted, we put forward our proposal. I expect to see it in the Bill as published.
