All pre-budget submissions are examined and considered as part of the Budgetary process. The issue raised in the submission relates to potential Budgetary measures. It is the usual practice for the Minister for Finance not to speculate or comment in advance of the Budget what it will contain and I do not propose to deviate from that practice.
