Seán Fleming: That is fine. Mr. Cody can send us a note because we have touched on a couple of different issues. It is historic but it is interesting that it is still rolling through. A final question is on tobacco excise receipts of €167 million. Will Mr. Cody explain what that is for? I understand it goes directly to the Department of Health.

Seán Fleming: Yes, hypothecated tax. Some people claim it does not exist. That is an example of an existing hypothecated tax. That is the only point I am making. The chart which has been provided probably shows a hypothecated tax.

Seán Fleming: I refer to the list of defaulters and so on which is published by Revenue. I will not go through the figures which were presented. Up to 55% is collected after two years.

The committee has been provided with figures for what has been collected up to two years after the event. Are payment...

Seán Fleming: Yes. That was not mentioned in the notes. We have not previously addressed that topic. Page 34 of the annual report contains reference to e-audit. I am sure Mr. Cody will tell me this paragraph is included every year, but I have only just noticed it. The report states: During 2018, we collected almost €69 million in yield from e-audits. This represents almost 28% of yield...
