I welcome the witnesses from IFAC.

In the context of recent figures on income tax and unemployment generally, did Mr. Coffey find it disappointing that there seems to be a fall in income tax in spite of coming close to full employment? I say that in light of the fact that Mr. Coffey has always been giving us the clear message that broadening the tax base is critical.
