I want to be helpful and I suggest that the tax strategy group analyse this. The Deputy will be aware that we have an issue with pensions in Ireland and we are proactively trying to encourage people to take out pensions and to invest for the future. There are a number of reliefs available and, in 2013, with REITs and IREFs we were trying to get people to invest in Irish property. Perhaps we could ask the tax strategy group to review it as they will report next summer, just a couple of months after the six months proposed in the Deputy's amendment.
