I would like to make one more point. I do not like voting for a property tax if it leads to hardship for people. A reasonable majority of people know the difficulties that we are in and are quite prepared to pay, and 40% of properties in Donegal would not have to pay more than ¤90. When Donegal people compare that sum with what their cousins in Strabane and Derry are paying, they will discover it is about one-tenth of the amount.
