I refer to the list of defaulters and so on which is published by Revenue. I will not go through the figures which were presented. Up to 55% is collected after two years. Some of the defaulters cannot afford to pay the debt but the Revenue still goes through the process. The committee has been provided with figures for what has been collected up to two years after the event. Are payment arrangements in place for many defaulters? Mr. Cody did not state whether there are payment arrangements in place in addition to the collections that have been made. He is indicating there are no payment arrangements with defaulters.
