My colleague, Deputy Michael McGrath, has raised the issue of the flat rate expenses with the Minister for Finance, Deputy Donohoe, as has Deputy Cassells in respect of the Tara Mines workers in particular. Can the Tánaiste give us an update? There is considerable fear among the teaching profession and, I am sure, many other professions about what the impact of this particular review of flat rate expenses by the Revenue Commissioners will be. Has the Government made a decision on the matter? Has the Minister for Finance made representations on behalf of the hundreds of thousands of taxpayers who will be affected? Has the Minister for Education and Skills got involved on behalf of teachers?

As the Deputy knows, this is primarily a matter for the Revenue Commissioners. I will get an update from the Minister, Deputy Donohoe, for him.
