We understand the Revenue does not have the legal basis to do it now but maybe there should be a legal basis. I am sorry for butting in but I envisage that down the road, the Oireachtas could take a different view on a sunset clause on trading losses brought forward versus capital investment. They might take a different view of a different sunset clause period if they were minded to do that but they could not do it without the information.
