I wish to raise two issues. First, will the Leader ask the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform, Deputy Howlin, to come before the House for a debate on the review by the Valuation Office of rateable valuations nationally? The process in this regard began in 2005. In 2008, it was estimated that the process would not be concluded until 2018. However, I spoke to the Commissioner of Valuation recently and he informed me that it will not be possible to conclude it until at least 2020.
