All my neighbours are in business and are very concerned that the advantageous rating position they had vis-à-vis the county will change. When the Minister talks about harmonisation, we all know what that means. It is a dangerous word. If there is harmonisation, somebody is coming up but somebody is going down. More than likely, the town council rates will go up.

The Acting Chairman has an advantage over me because I did not get any report on the county council meeting yesterday when I normally do. I do not know what maps she is talking about. Are there maps already in circulation showing potential revisions of the electoral areas?
