Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform: Select Sub-Committee on Finance

Finance Bill 2013: Committee Stage (Resumed)

Deputy Pearse Doherty: I welcome this section, which relates to civil partnerships but I have a question for the Minister of State. During the debate on last year's Finance Bill, we dealt with the issue of bringing the taxation code into line with the Civil Partnership Act. Why is this change being made now? How come we did not catch this last year? Why is this section, which is quite substantial, being included now?
