I recognise the independence of the Revenue Commissioners. As I have said before, I really respect the Revenue Commissioners. They have done an excellent job. They are one of the few institutions that came through the crash in whose actions, particularly in recent years, we are able to have pride. The Minister is 100% right. They interpret policy. It is our job to set policy. Has work begun on the policy regarding VAT on food supplements?
