I suggest to the Minister that it would be very sensible from a budgetary point of view to start to work out how much it would cost if the threshold went up to €40,000 and, likewise, how much it would cost if the threshold went up to €45,000, €50,000, and so on and so forth. To be honest, I cannot believe that we are not at least beginning to estimate that cost. If the Minister is not doing it, I strongly suggest that he does because he should know it if there is going to be any move or announcement on those thresholds.

I repeat, that announcement has been promised.
