It demonstrates to me the need for speed on this so there is no ongoing loss over several years. As Deputy Gogarty said, we do not want this parked for five or six years, or longer.
Sometimes minor changes can have a great effect on the performers but in this case there will be a profound effect if it is not addressed. This is why they call it. I have no problem at this stage in withdrawing the amendment on the understanding that I will resubmit on Report Stage. If there is additional information from other countries, perhaps the Minister of State could share that with us to confirm or change the understanding that it is a 16% loss for those in the Netherlands.
