Okay. Will Mr. Cody talk me through the situation regarding local authority houses and property tax? I know it was the job of the county councils to collect it but presumably a proportion of it went to the Revenue after it was collected. Can Mr. Cody say anything about whether the councils actually collected the money or did they just pay it out of their own resources? It was a source of considerable resentment in local authority estates where some people who owned their houses were paying it and their neighbours apparently were not having to pay anything.
