The reason I am asking is that if the VAT intake is more or less in line with where the Minister thinks it should be, given that the budget is being brought forward to October, is there an expectation that the VAT return for the fourth quarter might be up as a consequence of consumer sentiment in the retail sector around the time of the budget?
