Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme) and Remuneration Bill: Second Stage
12:00 pm
Mary Lou McDonald (Dublin Central, Sinn Fein)
The term "pension levy" is unhelpful and misleading. It is extremely irritating for people who are being taxed in a particular way to have their contribution dressed up as a pension levy. The Minister has indicated, to the trade unions and in this House on two occasions, that he perceives the levy to be a temporary measure.
