Given that the Minister no longer meets the Chancellor of the Exchequer, for example, as regularly as he would have when the UK was part of the European Union, on an informal basis outside Council meetings or at various other opportunities, there is a need to fill that gap, both from a political point of view as well as an administrative point of view to ensure that engagement on an official basis is at least maintained even if there are difficulties.

My final question moves in a completely different direction. It is on the area of remote working and working from home in the Department overall, not specifically Revenue. It is light of the proposed legislation announced yesterday by the Tánaiste, which the Minister and I have discussed at least twice during oral questions, about his ability to encourage his officials to maximise the opportunities that remote working presents to them and more widely. What efforts are being made and what accommodation is there within the Estimates to allow people to tool up to work remotely or possibly at home? Does the Minister envisage that would require any changes to the Estimates or is it something that is under constant review?
