Obviously we table parliamentary questions for the Minister to scope out different options. One of IBEC's proposals is to increase the entry point to the marginal tax rate by €2,000. It claims the gross cost of this would be €240 million per year. I received a reply to a parliamentary question to the Minister which states that an increase for that marginal tax rate by €2,080, which is roughly the same, would cost €312 million. Where has the €72 million gone?
