I wish to ask about something that the Chairman touched on this morning. What quantum of money is under appeal and what is the backlog? The head of the Irish Tax Institute said that it could take ten years for the backlog to be cleared. Should more be done at the Revenue stage to reach settlements before they go to appeal, given the ever-growing size of the logjam and the quantum of money involved?
