Thank you, Chair. Good afternoon, Mr. Cowen. You had an exchange with Deputy O'Donnell earlier on about the Indecon and Goodbody reports that you commissioned following the review you announced in your first budget in December '04 into property-based tax incentives. When you commissioned these reports, had the Department of Finance carried out their own assessment at that stage of the costs and the benefits of these property-related tax incentives?
