I can appreciate that. I might ask a follow-up question given we are in the realm of what the fiscal space might be. We talked earlier about the just under €1.1 billion we have spent on counter-inflationary measures, which will, obviously, reduce Exchequer revenue. We met representatives of the IMF earlier, who outlined a number of areas where they would consider broadening the tax base. Would the Minister like to comment on that?
