I take Professor Moloney's point. I do think that sometimes the budgetary cycle has an impact on the manner in which tax is implemented. I would like to put that out there. I am hopeful that in this Government cycle there will be significant progress on issues such as equality budgeting and well-being indicators.

I am thinking in particular of gender and diversity issues and considering them in terms of the impact tax has on particular groups. Will that be part of the commission's remit?
