I move amendment No. 142:

In page 121, between lines 6 and 7, to insert the following:“Report on introducing betting duty rate

34.The Minister shall, within 6 months of the passing of this Act, prepare and lay before Dáil Éireann a report on introducing a 3 per cent rate of betting duty to be paid by the punter directly when placing a bet.”.

Amendment No. 142 seeks a report on the issue of the betting duty of 3% paid by the punter. This was discussed at length last night as we discussed section 33, and with that in mind I withdraw this amendment and may consider tabling it on Report Stage.
