Thank you, Dr. Walsh. I will refer back to the questions Deputy McAuliffe raised on the valuations. It is a self-assessed valuation. Whatever I have had my property valued at for the past four or five years and whatever I have been paying, now that will be increased by approximately 75%, so I will still remain within that same valuation. If, however, I believe my property has gone above or below that valuation, it is up to me to return that information to the Revenue Commissioners. Do the Revenue Commissioners have any way to verify if somebody indicates a property value close to the actual property value?
