Ms Josephine Feehily:
Yes. We advise it in the sense that we give it our opinion. Sometimes we give it to the Department when it asks for it and sometimes even before it asks for it. Our advice would be more about the technical implementability of policy issues, rather than pure policy. However, we would be part of the discussion. For example, we are full members of the tax strategy group. We are part of the policy discussion.
