I thank Deputy McGreehan for that.
My officials and I are not aware of any particular customs or systems error that developed during last year but as the Deputy has fairly said, it can happen in any good organisation. If an issue did develop, I expect Revenue would be open enough to acknowledge if an error happened in its work and the taxpayer should not pay for it. I expect this is the attitude it would adopt. If the Deputy has any concerns this has not happened, she can either contact Revenue herself or raise it with me and I am happy to follow up on her behalf.
