I have no problem with the amendments. They are technical in nature. In order to support the flow on Report Stage, it would be helpful for the Minister to email a note to members in advance. He mentioned that the relief is subject to a commencement order and will be subject to state aid rules. Ireland has fallen foul of those rules in the past, with changes in the Finance Act not having been approved or requiring changes or alterations at a later stage. Has there been any indication from or discussion with the Commission regarding the likelihood of the relief being approved? Has there been any feedback on that?
