I welcome the Revenue Commissioners before the committee. I did not get an opportunity to congratulate them on their annual report. It was the centenary report and that is the reason it deserves to be recognised. The Revenue Commissioners are probably one of the few large institutions in Ireland which has not incurred any significant reputational damage since it was established. Hopefully, that will continue. I do not ask the witnesses to comment on that but it deserves to be recognised.

I ask Mr. Cody about the policy response to the pandemic in the form of the debt warehousing plan. I take it from his comments to the committee so far he thought that was an appropriate policy response by the Oireachtas to the uncertainty caused by the pandemic.
