My final question relates to the fund industry, the qualified investor-alternative investment funds and the Irish real estate fund, IREF, the new structure that has been in place since the Finance Bill last year. Did the witness's association lobby the Minister on the dividend withholding tax exemption for capital gains tax, CGT, the five year rule, last year when it was brought in? Did it lobby for the changes made in this year's Finance Bill?
