Mr. Niall Cody:

It is a fascinating read and it is available on the OECD website. It is very interesting. I have read it and I was looking at tables for collectable debt as a percentage for all the countries and the latest figure is for 2015. I hate to say this, but the lowest percentage of debt available for collection in all of the countries reported was Ireland.
