Order of Business.
I understand the Minister for Finance will not implement the recommendations of the Ombudsman concerning the back payment to widows and others who paid additional tax to the Revenue Commissioners some years ago. Will the Leader ask the Minister the reason for this? He is putting in place a regime for future payments but there will be no retrospective payment to widows in this category. His position should be explained to the House.
