asked the Minister for Local Government if, pending the reform and possible abolition of the present rating system, he will introduce legislation, if such is necessary, to provide relief for persons who are left alone in possession of a house purchased through the saving of a spouse; and if he will consider a plan to permit of rate payments, or a proportion thereof, being funded as they fall due for eventual recovery from the estate of the spouse when the house or property comes to be disposed of after his or her death.
