I will be brief. I appreciate the Government Whip allowing me to use a small bit of time. I record a declaration of what might be perceived as a conflict of interest in the debate. I refer to the concern I have for the constituents I represent who are dual paying, as Members have said. They are struggling to pay management fees in complexes and pay their local property taxes. They are very fearful about what will come in future following reviews. Any effort that could be made here, whether through this or another proposal, would merit support due to my concern for my constituents who have raised the matter with me on numerous occasions.
