John McGuinness (Carlow-Kilkenny, Fianna Fail)

We explained our understandings. I understand the Deputy's point. I met the Small Firms Association last week and this issue was not raised. I am not saying it is not an issue because I have had similar queries to my constituency office. I met the convenience store and newsagents association and this issue was not raised. However, I understand that it is an issue out there. I do not know the extent of the concern or the extent of the problem. I will undertake to ask the Revenue Commissioners and the Department of Finance about the specific issue the Deputy has raised.
