I am going to ask my officials to look at the issue of refundable tax credits in the context of the tax strategy group, TSG, process which will be done next year and will lead to reports being made available to the public before budget 2024. I listened to the issues that Deputy Doherty raised on Committee Stage. It is worth making the point that the very high income earners to whom he refers also play an important role in either the creation of employment in our country and the payment of income tax in a very progressive tax code that I acknowledged earlier. That said the issue to which this amendment refers is the concept of refundable tax credits and that matter will be looked at in the TSG process.
