10:30 am

I fundamentally disagree with the Minister. On her admission, under her own powers she is able to grant an exemption. The place to clarify and deal with an issue such as this is when we are giving detailed consideration to a Bill, as in this instance. I disagree with talking about this in regard to state aid rules and hiding behind tax compliance. This is about tax compliance, it is certainly not about a particular rate of tax or a state grant. I fundamentally disagree with those two points. That is why we are pushing it.
