Some older people who came to us got forms with incorrect addresses or whatever. They wrote to Revenue saying they wanted them changed. They panicked in the past couple of days when Revenue had not come back to them. Many of them have filed online. Can we take it that can be rectified? It is a concern. Some elderly people were waiting for the letter from Revenue and some may not have filed. When looking at the other properties, Revenue should operate in the spirit of people looking to be compliant. There are such cases and one can see that from the level of compliance overall.
