The Minister may believe that, as a result of the draconian manner in which the property tax was implemented, the Government has secured acquiescence to the tax. That is not the case. I wonder what is the cost of the recent debacles in handling the tax which added insult to injury among homeowners. I refer to the recent letters issued by the Revenue Commissioners and the cost of that operation, the mistake regarding first-time buyers and so forth.
