I am willing to get for the Deputy the rationale for the application of VAT. I will not stray into other people's areas of responsibility but I am not sure that I completely agree with him that it is tantamount to VAT on VAT. However, I understand the point the Deputy is making. I will arrange for him a briefing note on it.
