I support the ESRI and the surveys it undertakes. The group will be established to examine value based property tax but we are not saying that is ideal. I have absolutely no objection to the ESRI analysis being used by the group set up by the Minister to look at poverty impact studies. However, I object to the part of the amendment which states that it shall not be commenced until such point as the social inclusion division of the Department of Social Protection carries out a poverty impact analysis study. That is putting it on the long finger. We have said time and again that the introduction of the €100 charge is not ideal, but we are doing this in the interim because of the legacy left to us. We have to find the money. If the Senator had come up with ways of finding the money, I would remind him-----
