Ms Josephine Feehily:

I would like to mention something else before I do so. I do not want to mislead the committee. Deputy O'Donnell mentioned that in the case of deduction at source, people will have to opt into that. When we reach the compliance stage of this, if people have not opted in, deduction at source will happen on a mandatory basis. Such a deduction will be based on the Revenue estimate.
