This was mooted a couple of years ago, but obviously got 'put on the back burner' as it possibly didn't appeal to some folk with influence in high places!
It should also be a requirement that any payment over say €5 automatically gets a receipt showing the VAT. Officials would have the power to stop shoppers & ask to see the receipt.
