Has anybody in the Department of Taoiseach or any other Department been in contact with Conor Murphy, the Minister of Finance in the North, to discuss creating an all-Ireland rate of corporation tax? I understand that the North now has the ability to institute a corporation tax and potentially to equalise that rate with the South, which obviously would be a massive boon for the development of the economy in the North and would be a step forward in taxation equalisation on both parts of the island. Have there been any discussions with the Department of Finance in the North on that? What is the position of the Irish Government and the Department of Finance in the North on excise duty and minimum pricing on alcohol?
