I thank the Minister of State for his detailed reply and welcome the decision to have the tax strategy group produce a paper on the matter.

The recurring theme is that we need to look at alternatives. I recognise the independence of Revenue but when we are charging 13.5% on fast foods and, at the same time, removing the zero rate from food supplements and vitamins, something is amiss and needs to be addressed.

I thank the Minister of State for coming to the House.
