I am interested in some of the points Mr. Coffey has just made. The Minister has confirmed, at lunchtime or sometime before then, that there will be no income tax cuts in the budget. I imagine that allows for a certain amount of drag in that incomes will go up and with no additional cuts, there will be no cost. Does Mr. Coffey have a rough calculation of what that is likely to mean in respect of potential buoyancy?
