That was me once. I have a number of follow-on questions. Before the budget, a number of witnesses who appeared at the committee made a point on PRSI. Their view was that PRSI, whether it was the employee or employer contribution, was below the European average. Is that borne out by any examination that the European Anti-poverty Network has done? Do the witnesses agree with that viewpoint?
