This is a matter for the Revenue Commissioners. I am advised by Revenue that the businesses in question have significant debts, some of which are the subject of enforcement action by the sheriff, and that there have been ongoing difficulties with these businesses in securing timely compliance.

A proposal to address some of the debt was made very recently to Revenue. I am advised by Revenue that while the proposals presented are not acceptable as a basis for satisfactorily concluding matters, they will be in direct contact with the businesses concerned over the coming days to see if a basis for clearing the debt can be agreed.
